School Counseling through a Developmental Lens: Implications for Working with Adolescent Girls
Brookover, Dana L.; Hermann, Mary A.; Deitz, Michael E.
Journal of School Counseling, v19 n43 2021
In order to support adolescent girls' social and emotional development, school counselors need to understand girls' current experiences and developmental needs. Researchers used phenomenological methodology to explore the experiences of 11 girls in Generation Z. They further examined girls' interactions with their high school counselors including whether these interactions supported their development. Five themes emerged: developmental challenges; societal impact on development; strengths and protective qualities; experiences with school counselors; and suggestions for school counselors. Implications of these findings are provided.
