Speaking with the school counsellors.
Who are the school counsellors?
There are three psychologists at our school,
Mrs. Schroder, Ms. Criminale, Mr. Belling-Talbot who are registered
psychologists.
It’s our job to support students to find healthy ways of
improving their mental health and wellbeing using psychological therapy and
assessment. Our counselling rooms are located in F-block and W-Block
What do I need to do to speak with a counsellor?
Please read through this page and answer the questions as best you can. A copy of your responces are sent to the counsellors and your name is added to the waitlist. Once a counsellor is available they will organise to meet with you.
Important information:
- School counselling is not for emergencies or immediate concerns. If it is an emergency please pause this for now speak with a trusted adult or call 000
- If it isn't an emergency but you need help now please speak with your teacher, parent or chat with KidsHelpLine: https://kidshelpline.com.au/ | 1800 55 1800
- Depending on your grade and age you may need parent/carer permission
Please note that you will also have a more in depth conversation about these matters with the counsellor. If there is anything that you do not understand, please ask.
Parents/Carers wanted to connect with with the school counsellors are encouraged to email both the Class Teacher/Year Advisor AND counsellors@wccs.nsw.edu.au
