School Counselor vs School Social Worker vs School Psychologist (PPSC Authorizations)

At the Symposium for CA School Administrators (ACSA 2017), we led a workshop that described the similarities and differences between school counseling, school social work, and school psychology. We described the traditional role of each position, then gave examples of how school districts have used each position in innovative ways, with emphasis on equity and collaboration across role groups.

Each role is rewarding in it’s own way. Here’s a link to ACSA Symposium Conference Workshop. Please note CTC regs regarding PPSC authorizations have since been updated.
