My Project

I have the pleasure of providing counseling to students. During our sessions, we do art therapy, play therapy, and along with other interventions. Our school is a Title I school which means we serve a high number of children from low-income households. We also serve a large number of students who live in temporary housing. Our goal is to have our students thrive social-emotionally.

Along with providing therapeutic interventions, I provide a safe space where students can have a snack and feel comfortable enough to express themselves.

Please help me with continuing to provide a safe space for my students. We need paint, brushes, and paper so students can express themselves freely during counseling sessions.
