Small Group Counseling

Picture
Small Group Counseling is provided by 1 of 2 ways.

1. When a group of students are dealing with an isolated issue (conflict resolution), small group counseling takes on a round table approach where each student is able to speak freely about their involvement and perspective. Each student is expected to listen to all other points of view, be open to suggestions, and actively participate in coming up with ways to resolve an issue. 

                                     2. When a group of students are in need of additional counseling                                       support beyond classroom guidance. Students meet 1x - 2x per week                                       for approximately 7 - 8 weeks, engaging in planned activities                                              around a common struggle. Examples include Grief, Family                                                Changes (Separation/Divorce), Anxiety, or other mental health                                            obstacle interfering with the students ability to be available for                                            learning. Parental consent is required for this type of counseling.
