My Students

P.S. 200 is a title I school located in South Brooklyn. We serve children that are from low income households. A lot of our students are underserved, and are in need of academic and mental health resources. We provide many services to students such as; Counseling, Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Physical Therapy. ESL services and small group academic support.

I provide mandated counseling services to students who are in need of social/emotional support.

I also work closely with families and community based organizations to ensure that we are meeting the needs of all students. During my sessions with my students, I incorporate various tools and strategies (visuals, behavior charts, sensory tools, timers, social skills games, etc.) that are needed to address every students needs.

My counseling students are loving, unique and complex. They all have different needs, different learning styles and different life experiences. My counseling students strive and are capable of reaching their full potential when they have access to the necessary resources, and when there is a collaboration between the school, families and their community.

My Project

As we all know, this school year has been a challenging and unusual one for all of our students. Self care and mental wellness have been a priority for many of us. Our students have been dealing with great amounts of stress that makes it difficult for them to cope with. In order for our students to succeed academically, they need to be well socially and emotionally. My project will provide many students with access to fun, creative and effective digital SEL resources that will help address their mental health needs.
