Mrs. Conover's School Counseling Corner

Welcome! My name is Veronica Conover and this is my first year as School Counselor at CRS! I am incredibly excited for the special opportunity to get to know and work with each and every one of you. In my role, I work diligently to promote the academic, personal, and social development of all students. I provide comprehensive services and programs geared towards helping all students pursue success and happiness. Some of the services and topics included are:

SEL: identifying feelings, self-management and more
brief and solution-focused counseling
individual student planning
snack packs
social skills and friendship issues

mindfulness and stress management
classroom guidance
responsive services

Warm weather "mindful" walks are a great way to spend quality family time while also practicing a healthy lifestyle that improves our physical and mental health!

Mindful walks are also helpful because they allow us to live "in the present moment" and enjoy our surroundings .

One interesting technique to use while on a mindful walk is doing a 5-4-3-2-1 grounding exercise. How does this work? While on your walk, collaborate with your walking partner(s) to identify 5 things you can SEE, 4 things you can FEEL, 3 things you can HEAR, 2 things you can SMELL, and 1 thing you can TASTE. This is a great way to increase awareness and reduce stress!
