Recently school counselors in Japan require community psychological perspective that they treat person and environment through a comprehensive approach. In this article, we reviewed the role of school counseling from viewpoint of community psychology. We discussed the relation between school counseling and community psychology, and introduced MEASURE model (Stone & Dahir, 2004, 2006). MEASURE includes six steps, Mission, Elements, Analyze, Stakeholders-Unite, Results, Educate. Finally we considered MEASURE from community psychological and difference between Japanese and American school counseling perspectives. This review demonstrated the need of community psychological paradigm shift for Japanese school counseling.
