Classroom Guidance Lessons
I provide classroom guidance lessons that are developmentally appropriate to every grade level.  Lessons support our school's culture and environment, encouraging positive core values and traits including, but not limited to: fairness, responsibility, accountability, respectfulness, and kindness. 
TOPICS INCLUDE:

Emotion Management, Empathy & Respect, Skills for Learning, Active Listening Skills, Being Assertive, 
Problem Solving, Seeking Help, Dealing with Peer Pressure, Dealing with Gossip, Accepting Differences, 
​
Being Fair, Positive Self-talk, Responsibility, Bullying Prevention, Healthy Choices, Personal Safety        
 
Small Group Counseling

Small counseling groups consist of children (typically 4-6) from similar grade levels.  These children are chosen to be part of a group depending on the topic.  Students may sign up for a specific group, teachers or parents may refer, or students could be chosen by the counselor.  Topics include, but are not limited to the following:
Divorce, Changing Families, Study Skills, New Students, Social Skills, Friendship, Anger & Stress Management, and Grief.

Typically groups meet once a week, for a period of 6-8 weeks.  Parents will be informed when their child is being asked to participate in a group via a parent permission letter or a phone call from the school counselor.

Individual Counseling
Individual counseling is based upon an open-door policy for all students and staff. 
​Referrals can also be made by teachers and/or parents.
STATEMENT OF CONFIDENTIALITY
I respect the rights and relationships of students, 
information shared with me will be kept confidential unless disclosure is required to prevent clear and imminent danger to the student or
​to others or when legal requirements demand that confidential information be revealed.
