Third Culture Kids: Implications for Professional School Counseling
Limberg, Dodie; Lambie, Glenn W.
Professional School Counseling, v15 n1 p45-54 Oct 2011
The increase of international business, military placements, and immigration has led to an increase in students attending schools in a country other than where they were born: third culture kids (TCKs). TCKs have unique educational needs, necessitating the support of their school counselors. This article (a) defines and introduces the needs and characteristics of TCKs, (b) reviews interventions for school counselors working with TCKs during transitional stages, and (c) presents a case illustration of a middle school counselor employing the suggested strategies. (Contains 1 table.)
