Looking forward to meeting all of you!

> Dear List, I have a close friend who is a clinical psychologist and school counselor. When I told her about our up-coming meeting in April she offered the following. When she talks to new school counselors coming into the system she queries them about their experiences with the children they help in her oversight role. Her comment was that the counselors haven't a clue about philosophy or theory of counseling. They take each student on a case-by-case basis, address the overt problem and move on to the next student, never trying to find common threads or patterns or think about the Big Picture issues....basically doing counseling by the numbers. My friend, who has been counseling for decades, is appalled by this lack of knowledge and interest in getting at deeper issues in the patient population. I proffered that this is a result of society in general conflating knowledge and information, assuming that everything we need to know is on our PDAs. And I assume that that comes out of the 'Question Authority' movement starting in the 70s. So is this the kind of thing we're going to address in April ?
