Individual Counseling: If your child child has a short-term problem or needs some skills to be successful in their academic, career or social emotional development, I can help. I see students individually for about 4-6 sessions. Your child and I work on creating a goal, they learn the skills they need and we practice their new skills. School counseling services are NOT a substitute for diagnosis or treatment for any mental disorder. For longer term or more severe problems, I recommend seeing an outside counselor who can deliver more intensive support.
