Abstract

ABSTRACT Structured peer group supervision (SPGS) supports applied skill growth for novice mental health professionals. Whereas previous SPGS research has focused on counseling, consultation is a core competency for school psychologists, with unique features meriting consideration during SPGS. This case study describes the influence of SPGS on applied communication and problem-solving skills of nine graduate students taking a school consultation course. Structured interviews measured participants’ perceptions, including information about how SPGS influenced consultation skills. Thematic coding revealed positive impacts of SPGS on communication skill development, and as logistical and conceptual support. Implications for school consultation training and practice are discussed.
