*Problem Solving 
*Conflict Resolution
*Handling Anger

Small Groups   
Small group counseling provides students with a relaxed setting to be with other students to participate in
 discussions and activities on a variety of issues. Below is a sampling of small groups that may be offered.
 
*Social Skills Group
*Positive Behavior Support Groups–focusing on internalizing and externalizing behaviors
*Additional groups as needed
  Individual
 Students can always come to see the counselor individually!

* If I am going to see students on a regular basis I will seek parent permission.  

To see the School Counselor, students can: 

* Tell their teacher or parent. 

*Come to my office

*Drop a note in my box outside the counseling office
