Our counselors provide students with a safe, open environment in which they can feel free to express their emotions. Counselors are able to introduce students to techniques that will help them to deal with the stressors of their lives.

Our program involves a close working relationship between our counselors and the teachers, staff and administrators. With all of these people working together, we are able to pinpoint the students who need special attention and intervene to provide them the one-on-one guidance and consistency of services that they require at no charge to the student or family. We offer consultation with parents and families in order to provide the best treatment plan for the student. Our counselors and Counselor on Campus Program Administrators work closely with school administration in providing services which include individual treatment, group treatment, classes and psychoeducational classes and presentations for school staff.

Today’s children are often living in turbulent households and are being exposed to such emotional stressors as divorce, alcohol and substance abuse, anger, physical and sexual abuse, peer pressure and parental pressure for academic success. Students bring these experiences and emotional issues to school which can translate into disruptive classroom behavior, poor academic performance, and peer relationship issues.

Having a counselor on-site provides the students the opportunity to talk, explore their feelings and to consider choices in a safe and nurturing surrounding. This, in turn, encourages academic success, positive peer relationships and encourages healthy choices.
