A place to connect
We wanted to create a place to connect, share and support you, your family and our community. Please take the information you need and/or want. We hope that some of the information shared here will be helpful during these unique times. Please see the link below to connect to the email addresses for the counsellors at your school to request contact or further information.
does my child need to see the school counsellor?
This question comes up for many parents at some point in their child’s life. Maybe your child doesn’t seem the same lately, maybe you are noticing unusual behaviours, maybe your child received a recent diagnosis, maybe their teacher is concerned, or maybe they seem sad or anxious. The list goes on! You are not alone. Just like with adults, it is normal (and actually healthy) for kids to go through ups and downs.
So let us ask you some questions that may help.... head over to the page to read more to determine if counselling is the right support.
