Case Consultation and Supervision
Support Counselors to Support Students
Student mental health needs are growing. School counselors are on the front lines, often identifying concerns before the student can access community-based services. Counselors are also being asked to support students with more significant clinical complexity so they can continue to access their education in the least restrictive environment. These demands have only increased in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Districts can best support their counselors’ wellness and professional development goals by creating space for case consultation, sharing best practices, and learning to apply evidence-based approaches.
