Elementary counseling is the art of helping children develop their resources, resolve problems, make decisions, and facilitate personal growth and development. As a counselor in the school, it is my purpose to assist children at as early a time as possible to promote successful academic, social and emotional development.

Some of the issues addressed in individual and group counseling include:

• Academic success
• Peer Relationships
• Divorce
• Family issues
• Goal Setting
• Feelings

Each counseling session is scheduled with the classroom teacher for a 30 minute period during non-academic instruction. Some groups are scheduled during lunch to promote peer socializing and healthy modeling.
