Individual counseling is a one to one meeting with the counselor to discuss a problem or topic of interest. Friendship issues, difficulty in the classroom, on the playground, or on the bus, conflict resolution, bullying, and anger management are frequent issues facing children.Referrals for students to meet the school counselor can be made by classroom teachers or principal, parents, or through student self-referrals. Again, it is important to remember that school personnel and parents working together is a winning combination.
