Counseling schedule:
Monday, Wednesday, Friday- PVS (Grade 4)
Tuesday/Thursday- HTS (Grade 3)
Classroom Counseling:
3rd-5th grade students will be receiving whole group classroom lessons based on the current school counseling curriculum.
Individual or Group Counseling:
Services are available for situational difficulties on topics that include coping skills, family transitions, grief and loss, peer relationships, anger management, academic support, and school transitions. These groups and individual sessions are short-term and solution focused (6-8 weeks) and held as needed. Groups and individual sessions are designed to meet the developmental as well as the situational needs of the students. By addressing these areas, the teaching and learning process in the classroom are supported.
Counseling Office Visits:
Any unscheduled student visit to the counselor's office, will be communicated to the parent/guardian via written notice or phone call.
Confidentiality:
HTS/PVS School counselors abide by the confidentiality guidelines set by the American School Counseling Association (ASCA). Discussions in the counseling office are private. However, if the counselor is led to believe that harm is suspected, then the counselor is legally and ethically obligated to break confidentiality and contact supports outside the counseling office.
If a student should require additional support beyond what can be offered in school, outside referrals may be made. A list of outside resources is available on the "Parent Resources" page.
Please feel free to reach out to me to discuss the counseling supports that can be offered for your child.
