Counselors go into classrooms for social emotional lessons and meet with students in groups or individually for short term solution based counseling (this may include conflict resolution and restorative circles). We also help coordinate and facilitate student study team (SST) meetings and 504 meetings. 

In addition, Perkins has a variety of wonderful district approved partnerships for additional mental health services and supports on our school site including:  Harmonium Family Youth Partners for mentorship and therapy services through Love and Time, Healthy Early Years from San Diego State and TIDES YMCA Youth and Family Services.  

If you feel your student/family would benefit from additional mentorship and/or mental health/behavioral support, please reach out to one of us in the counseling office and we can help determine which program to submit a referral to.
