School psychologists consulting in the schools: Comment on Gullette et al. (2019).

Abstract

Comments on an article by E. C. D. Gullette et al. (see record 2019-39191-007). A recent article by Gullette et al. (2019) examined guidelines for education and training at the doctoral and postdoctoral levels in consulting psychology and organizational consulting psychology. The guidelines provide an important framework and noted several specialty areas from which psychologists can provide consultation. A related area of consultation in which the guidelines can also have utility involves the consulting work provided by school psychologists within schools. By emphasizing that consultation within school psychology is significant, we hope to draw attention to the point that consulting is a core area of school psychology practice, while also drawing attention to these guidelines for school psychologists who might not otherwise see this document.
