Individual Guidance Services Counselor-Student Individual Support

In FISD, school counselors do not work with students one-on-one in a therapy/clinical role.

If a student is having emotional or social challenges that are keeping them from remaining in the classroom,  I may visit with that student as a support service to the educational environment.    Student referrals may come from the classroom teacher, principal, assistant principal, parent, etc.  My goal is to help that student cope with the current situation, so they will be able to be successful in the classroom.  Sometimes working with an individual student can take a couple of sessions, but I will notify the parents when I see a student more than one time and will obtain permission. 

If you would like more in-depth counseling or therapy, FISD has a list of counselors/therapists that I can give you or go to the Parent Resource Page and then click on Counseling Services on this site.  This list is a courtesy furnished to parents and staff of people believed to provide certain services.  The School does not endorse or recommend any counselor(s) and we are not authorized to make such recommendations.
