School counselors may collaborate in a variety of ways including:

Teaming and Partnering - Teaming and Partnering can occur through simple resource sharing, joint presentations, and advisory councils or formalized partnerships with specific focus or agenda.
School/district - By serving on committees or advisory boards, school counselors advocate for student programs and resources and assist in generating school-wide and district support for the school counseling program. - (ASCA, 2012)

These goals encourage accountability and also allow for growth to be acknowledged. While assessing the program of individual counseling, recognizing individual growth gives clear understanding as to whether or not direct student services is working. This data can be tracked by counselor, but it is far more effective if the data is kept and maintained by the student, especially at the middle school level. Meta cognitively, the student will make more connections if they understand the tools being used that are assisting them achieve mastery of particular situations.

Therefore understanding development as well as current trends and social norms, play a huge role in whether or not a pre-adolescent student will engage fully in a session. Using a combination of "talk and play" a middle school counselor may be able to interact with a student on a more meaningful level.

The lessons take approximately 30 minutes to facilitate, and are compatible with other supplements for empowering behaviors, like Kelso's Choices, which begin at the younger levels and can be built upon in the middle levels.

School counselors come into the classrooms, once a week, for 30 minutes, in conjunction with the classroom teacher. Together they would facilitate a classroom lesson that built on previous lessons. The lessons were age and developmentally appropriate, engaging with current techniques, videos, and activities that were engaging to the audience intended.

The idea was to implement the group counseling ASE model “which focused on resiliency characteristics” and see if there would be an impact on students’ academic and personal-social success. (p. 28). Through the use of qualitative and quantitative information it was concluded that some middle schools involved in the study achieved academic and personal-social success. In terms of academic improvement, “the groups GPA as a whole showed an increase of .34 points” and when “looking at resiliency, some students who participated seemed to acquire greater knowledge of and skills for being resilient in school and at home” (Rose and Steen, 2015, p.33). Through this experiment it is suggested that utilizing group counseling and more specifically models such as ASE can have an impact on students.

By learning to identify their feelings and discuss them, students will learn better ways to manage them. Creating this chain reaction can work to keep the schools safe because students learn to use their words instead of act on them.

Three types of interaction are triadic-dependent, collaborative-dependent, and collaborative-interdependent" (Erford, 2015, p. 304). The triadic-dependent model the consultant is viewed as the expert from whole the consultee seeks assitance to remediate a problem with the client. Many consultations that school counselors conduct with teachers and family members fall under this relationship category" (304-305). The collaborative-dependent model the "helping process departs from a view of the consultant as a solitary expert. The consultee continues to depend on the consultant's problem-solving expertise, knowledge of normal and abnormal development, and skills for effecting client and systemic change (Erford, 2015, p. 305). In the collaborative-interdependent model "emphasizes an interdependent problem-solving process in which family members, educators, counselors, youth, and members of the broader community contribute as equal participants" (Erford, 2015, p. 309).
