School counseling is designed to promote students' academic, career, and social/emotional development. The school counselor provides short-term, solution focused counseling to promote student success. Sometimes, students may benefit from longterm or more intensive mental health work. In those instances, your student should work with a licensed mental health provider.
Here is a list of regional mental health providers in the Big Horn Basin.
