What does a School Counselor do?I have the opportunity of working with students through classroom lessons, small group, and individual counseling. I also collaborate with school staff and parents in order to best meet the needs of the students.
Individual Counseling: Some students can benefit from one-on-one counseling regarding academic, social, or emotional challenges.
Small Group Counseling: A variety of small groups are offered to students who may benefit from spending some extra time developing academic, social or emotional skills along with their peers, and to students who are coping with similar life situations. Groups can have anywhere from 3-7 members and typically meet once a week. I work closely with teachers with the group referral process.
Classroom Visits/Lessons: I visit each classroom and have the chance to interact with every student during these lessons. Lessons typically last 30 minutes in length and cover topics such as understanding feelings of self and others, developing coping and problem-solving skills, friendship skills, and study skills. Lessons provide a SEL (social emotional lesson) to students.
Other Services/Roles: Parent/Teacher consultation, Crisis Counseling/response, IEP support (as needed) , PBIS, Behavior intervention, Referrals for outside services and community resources, and Conflict management
