The Triadic-Dependent Model Of Collaboration And Abortion

a. Consultation and collaboration is used in working with others in the school. Community, and family to promote student personal-social, career, and academic development. One instance, would be through referrals to counseling or tutoring services that are given outside of the school, which is typically done when the counseling services is outside of the School Counselor’s scope in terms of typical and/or length of counseling services. The student’s information, assuming permission is given to share, will be shared with the community counselor and possibly progress information will be shared in return so that both parties can assist the student the best way possible. Consultation and collaboration will be used with parents as a way to provide

well-rounded services that extends beyond the school into their home life. This makes it easier on the student when learning new techniques and skills because it gives them more time to practice it. For instance, learning breathing techniques to reduce anger would be beneficial to practice at home and at school to see if the student is using it appropriately and to see if it is really working. Collaboration and Consultation would be used within the school during advisory team meetings and at other times as a way to support each other, to ensure every student is receiving the most from their education, and to ensure that the systematic approach at the school is being followed.

There are three models of consultation. The Triadic-Dependent Model follow traditional consultation in which the consultant gives advices to the consultee and then the consultee is the one to help the student/client. Therefore, the helpseeker/consultee acts as the middle ground. Bergan and Krattochwill believes that behavior consultation would apply under this model by the behavior expert to help the parent/teacher assist students’ behavior (Erford, 2015). Kahn used a solution-focused model that was based on intimal structure, consultation goals, examine exceptions, deciding on a solution, and summarizing. The Collaborative-Dependent model is the middle ground of the three models in which the consultant is still the expert, but the helpseeker’s opinion and experiences with the student is used together to form an assistance plan. Schein’s process model solves problems by look at: communication patterns, group member roles, problem solving procedures, group norms, leadership, and intergroup cooperation (Erford,205). The third model, Collaborative-Interdependent model is used for complex cases in which the school, community, student’s family, and possibly the student works together as equal participants. A collaboration model for students with complex issues requires a specialized plan due to the uniqueness of the issue and the lack of a standardize process for these non-typical issues. This model could be used for at-risk youth, Suicidal ideation, and grief. The approach used to create my collaborative model for school counseling is the Collaborative-Interdependent model. One reason is that we all have different experiences and expertise with students, therefore we need to work together to form a plan. Also, the saying that “two heads are better than one” is true; we can help each other fill-in the information gap when helping students to form a more well-rounded assistance

plan.

c. Consultation and Collaboration are both used to as ways to help students. Consultation is indirect because the consultant is not helping the student his or herself. Collaboration is where more than one party works to together to help the student, although it does not mean that each party is the ones physically helping the student. Collaboration is voluntary where each party shares responsibility of the effectiveness of the program. Also, consultations can be modeled as collaborations by including the consultee’s experiences with the child during the planning process. This would also help build rapport between the consultant and consultee as well.
