My Project

Life can be stressful for everyone. Often high schoolers feel overwhelmed with the stressors of life.

Captivating journals, engaging CBT workbooks, and sensory materials are needed to help high school students learn grounding, coping, and mindfulness strategies.

Through counseling sessions, students are able to learn to identify sources of stress, anxiety, and worry, understand the physical impact of excessive worry, and learn coping techniques to reduce worry. Students will be encouraged to practice the strategies learned and to report back their success stories. My desire is that the techniques and strategies learned will become life-long skills that will help my students navigate the challenges of life more successfully.
