School counselors, School Social Workers, and School Psychologists are committed to supporting students’ social/emotional needs. As advocates for students, they promote a positive environment that enhances students’ ability to properly manage the social/emotional demands of their lives. Your mental health professionals use appropriate appraisal methods to promote a school environment designed to propel students toward positive mindsets and behaviors supporting social/emotional development through direct (e.g., classroom curriculum, group counseling and individual counseling) and indirect (e.g., collaborating or consulting with staff, families or communities) services.
