Key Elements of the Consultative Stance

Johnston and Brinamen (2006) have identified 10 elements that seem to be essential to the consultative stance.

The 10 elements are:

1. The centrality of relationships

2. Parallel process as an organizing principle

3. Avoiding the position of the expert

4. Mutuality of endeavor

5. Understanding another's subjective experience

6. Considering all levels of influence

7. Hearing and representing all voices

8. Wondering instead of knowing

9. Patience

10. Holding hope

The following pages define each element and provide a ten-part scenario that illustrates each of the ten elements through the interaction among:

Renee, a home visitor;

Jasmine, a mental health consultant; and

Shelby a young mother and her 10 month old daughter Niya.

I am an associate professor in the Rightpath Research and Innovation Center at University of South Florida. My passion is to develop assessment and intervention tools for educators and clinicians to use. I draw from a number of disciplines and their evidence to make sure the products I develop and disseminate have adequate research behind them and that considerations for their feasible and sustainable implementation have been integrated into the research and development process. Specific areas of expertise include evidence-based practice, implementation research, MTSS, academic language, narratives, prevention of reading comprehension and writing problems, children with autism, and culturally and linguistically diverse students.
