What Exactly does the School Counsellor do? Can my Child Receive Therapy at School?\nIn the school context, there can be a wide variety of difficulties and challenges. Schools are, by nature, a very dynamic and complex environment. Students at the same school can have a wide variety of very differing needs, and it is of the upmost importance to provide them with the specific support they require.<\/p>\n

There are many terms to describe the process of helping an individual overcome challenges and maximise growth, such as counselling, coaching or psychotherapy. The professional who is best placed to provide these services, such as counsellor, coach or psychotherapist, varies depending on the goals to be achieved, the approach or model used or the context in which they work.<\/p>\n

It's important to make this distinction to provide clarity and recognise the differences in the roles.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
