Blogs School counselors, school social workers, school psychologists: we see you, and all the amazing support you provide for students.
At times, you are asked to do more than for what you’ve been trained.
And because of that, you may feel ill-equipped for what your role has become.
If you’re feeling overextended and exhausted, we can help.
After listening and learning what counselors need (besides hugs and chocolate), we’ve created this course just for you, with practical and timely topics. Here’s a list:
- Facilitating difficult conversations
- Brain-science-based study strategies
- “In the moment” responses to hate speech and actions
- Student engagement
- Goal setting
- Ideas for collaborating after using a needs-based assessment
- SEL-based responses to challenges
- Resources for all of the above…and so much more!
