Counsellors focus on the personal, emotional and social needs of students. Counsellors meet with students one-on-one or in small groups during the school day, and privacy is ensured so students feel comfortable.
Discussions between Counsellers and students are confidential, but the Counsellor will work with parents and teachers to develop plans for meeting a student’s needs. Counselling referrals can be made by principals, teachers, parents, and other agencies, or students can self-refer.
Counsellors may also give classroom presentations and provide support to a school dealing with a crisis or stressful situation.
NWSD Counsellors do not provide counselling for adults or families, but will help to connect families with other agencies and professionals if needed.
