I will be using the games and therapeutic activities to help promote team building and character building. The therapeutic games also help to get students talking and engaged. It's important that students learn how to interact with others, as well as learn the ability to take turns, lose fairly and be a team player. These are life skills they need to learn and practice as high schoolers. These are often skills that are missing or lacking. The chairs and alternative seating to have in the therapy room help students to feel more comfortable during counseling sessions, or working through an anxiety attack. The workbooks will be used to help reach students who may be more closed off or reluctant to counseling. Allowing them to help guide their own session, with the therapists assistance by picking an activity for the session.
