Attention Parents:
Morning Wellness Hour at HMS is the first Tuesday of every month in the HMS Wellness Lounge! Join Us!
The HMS Wellness Lounge is a vibrant, nature-inspired "zen den" designed to help students self-regulate, decompress, and reduce anxiety. Open to all students during most lunch times as a space to relax and recharge, it is also utilized throughout the school day by our mental health interns and professional staff for scheduled individual and group counseling. In this welcoming environment, students can engage in calming mindfulness activities, guided imagery, breathing exercises, and art or play therapy to help them return to the classroom feeling emotionally refreshed and ready to learn.
The Fox Wellness Den serves as a dedicated, quiet environment tailored specifically for private, structured therapeutic support. Unlike the main lounge, this space is reserved strictly for scheduled appointments and small-group sessions facilitated by our mental health providers. It offers a focused, nature-inspired setting where students can participate in targeted counseling, specialized mindfulness practices, and intensive art or play therapy.
As HMS has partnered with the Titan Wellness Center at San Marino High School, TWC Mental health interns see students either on a self-referral, teacher, staff, or parent-referral basis.
At this time, students have scheduled appointments or given a call-slip to work with a mental health intern in the HMS Wellness Lounge, including the Fox Wellness Den. Some students are seen individually and others in groups. All students requiring or seeking "walk-in" counseling services must first go the Main Office (Counseling Office) to check in with the school counselor. Students are then sent to the appropriate counseling setting. Most students will meet with the school counselor in their office while others, may be referred to work with an Intern in our Wellness Lounge.
