As a school counselor, my major goal of counseling is to give academic support, including organizational, study, and test–taking skills, helps students in decision-making and setting of goals, teach students to plan, and explore, and give career awareness, educate them to understand themselves and others around them, enlighten students on coping strategies, peer relationships and effective social skills, identify and address issues that interfere with their education, identify their interests, strength, and aptitudes through assessment.
I offer individual counseling to help students resolve personal or interpersonal challenges. I also offer small group counseling to help students enhance listening and social skills, learn to empathize with others and find social support through healthy peer relationships and lastly, I make referrals when necessary.
