Collie W. Conoley is an associate professor of educational psychology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. His PhD is from the counseling psychology program at The University of Texas at Austin. In addition to his interests in indirect service delivery, he has investigated various psychotherapeutic strategies. He is an expert in family and marital therapy. In the press of actually providing consultation services, a theoretical orientation may seem superfluous. In fact, however, a solid theoretical grounding can be of great practical use. Several orientations have been developed and can be combined to fit a consultant's personal beliefs and practice situations.
