The School Counsellor provides guidance and support to students in areas including academic planning, personal well-being, and career development. Services are solution-focused and school-related, helping students develop strategies to overcome challenges, set goals, and thrive in school. These services are not ongoing therapy or family counselling, but the counsellor can consult with outside agencies when needed to support student success.
As part of the school-based service team, the School Counsellor contributes to creating a safe, caring, and inclusive learning environment and participates in planning for critical incidents or other student needs. The counsellor also implements assessments and uses information to support student learning and growth.
All counselling interactions are confidential, according to provincial legislation. However, confidentiality has limits, and information may be shared if there is a risk of harm to the student or others, or as required by law.
Students may access counselling services voluntarily, or may be referred by parents or school staff. In these cases, students work collaboratively with the School Counsellor and, when appropriate, with parents and/or teachers to develop strategies and interventions that support their learning, personal growth, and overall well-being.

Life concerns (family changes, emotions, stress, worries)
Or anything at all they would like to talk about — nothing is too small
Counselling sessions are confidential, with standard limitations, which can be discussed with students and parents if needed.
