Overview
  • The context
  • Workgroups purpose/charge
  • Consultation as a domain
  • Working definitions
  • Points on consensus
  • The Competence components
  • Competency-based consultation training
  • Future directions

3
Objectives
  • To address fundamental issues regarding
    consultation and interprofessional collaboration
    in professional psychology.
  • To articulate working definitions, consensus
    points about psychologists as consultants and
    interprofessional collaborators, consulting
    competencies blueprint for preparation,
    assessment strategies for consultation
    competencies, and future directions.

Underpinnings
  • Principles for Education and Training at the
    Doctoral and Post-Doctoral Level in Consulting
    Psychology/Organizational (APA, 2000)
  • Guidelines for Education and Training at the
    Doctoral Level in Industrial/Organizational
    Psychology (APA, 1999).
  • Multicultural Guidelines on Education and
    Training, Research, Practice, and Organizational
    Change for Psychologists (APA, 2002).
  • APA Ethical Standards.

5
Consensus Points
  • Psychologists are experts in human behavior which
    they can assess and influence through practice in
    a variety of settings with different levels of
    focus (i.e., individual, group, systems)
  • Interprofessional collaboration (to include
    interdisciplinary relationships) both internal
    and external to psychology is a core competency
    for all psychologists.
  • Psychologists can make distinctive contributions
    as consultants insofar as consultation is
    practiced by scientifically trained professionals
    with relational skills, cultural competence,
    values, social justice orientation, and
    psychological assessment proficiency (i.e.,
    psychometrics, measurement, and evaluation).
  • Consultation is a core competency for education
    and training for professional psychology.

6
Working Definition
  • Psychological consultation focuses on the needs
    of individuals, groups, programs or
    organizations. It refers to planned interactions
    between the professional psychologist
    (consultant) and one or more clients or
    colleagues (consultees) relative to a problem,
    person, area, or program. Psychological
    consultation is based on principles and
    procedures found within psychology and related
    disciplines which a professional psychologist
    appliesher/his areas of expertise in response to
    the presenting needs and stated objective of
    consultees.

7
Consultation Competence Components
  • Foundational knowledge (e.g., theories about
    systems, organizations and consultation0
  • Cultural self-awareness (guided by APA
    Multicultural Guidelines)
  • Relevant skill sets cognitive, emotional, and
    behavioral (CEB schema)
  • Implementation skills (e.g., process planning,
    client management, team facilitation)

8
Competency-Based Consultation Training
  • Requires a balance between generic and
    specialty-specific consultation competencies and
  • Personal/professional development
  • Graduate level practical, supervised experience
  • Formal coursework in systems theory
  • Ethics
  • Additional considerationsmultidisciplinary
    reading literature reviews, and textbooks.

9
Consultation Education Training
  • Interprofessional education, training, and
    scholarship prepares psychologists to
  • 1) work in a respectful, collaborative,
    integrative, and informed manner within our own
    field and with other disciplines and professions
    and
  • 2) work with individuals groups, systems, and
    organizations that may have diverse values,
    ethical perspectives, and worldviews, and may be
    accountable to different constituencies.

10
Assessment of Consultation Competencies
  • Peer/faculty evaluation through traditional
    methods
  • Observations
  • Capstone experience
  • Objective, outcome-based measures
  • Supervised field experiences
  • Case analysis

11
Future Directions
  • Completion of a coherent statement regarding
    consultation, interdisciplinary relationships and
    interprofessional collaboration.
  • Articulation of consultation education and
    training domains from developmental perspectives.
  • Compilation of bibliographies, training modules,
    dictionary of psychology-relevant consultation
    terms, and continuing education programs.

12
Thoughts about Consultation
  • Consultation is an art that requires relationship
    development in order to facilitate understanding
    by the consultee of the core issues they may be
    experiencing.

13
Future Directions
  • Complete a good coherent document.(ST)
  • Dissemination tasks
  • Determine to what extent competencies for
    consultation are shared by other professional
    psychologists by
  • Elicit feedback from related groups and entities,
    (i.e.,Divisions, credentialing and accreditation
    bodies) to enrich the competency development
    process. (ST)

14
Más para el Futuro
  • Further articulation of Consultation education
    and training domain from developmental
    perspectives (core specialty) across A B
    levels.
  • Development of modules.
  • Assessment of education training competencies
    for reliability and validity.
  • Communication from academic programs that
    consultation is one of the service areas of the
    department, a benefit to students and
    communities.
  • Taskforce to define and implement systems that
    professional psychology can define and sell.

15
Para el Futuro
  • APA presentation (Conversation Hour) through BEA,
    BPA, Divisions and other entities.
  • Proposals to all training councils.
  • Steering Committee prepare a presentation package
    as a product of this conference.

16
More Future Directions
  • Practice-Research Network.
  • Consultation-based conference involving specialty
    areas.
  • Article representing the consultation domain in
    professional psychology.
  • Bibliographies, training modules, dictionary of
    psychology-relevant consultation terms,
    continuing education.
