The best way to reach your child’s school counselor is by email.  School Counselors do not maintain 24-hour access to email accounts. During school hours, we will do our best to respond as soon as possible.  We are here to support your child.
Here is our list of county agencies, including counseling practices if your child is in need of ongoing mental health support.  Many of these offer teletherapy.

What does a school counselor do?

School counselors design and deliver school counseling programs that improve a range of student learning and behavioral outcomes (Carey & Dimmitt, 2012). These programs are comprehensive in scope, preventive in design and developmental in nature. “The ASCA National Model: A Framework for School Counseling Programs” (ASCA, 2019a) outlines the components of a school counseling program. The ASCA National Model brings school counselors together with one vision and one voice, which creates unity and focus toward improving student achievement and supporting student development. - American School Counselor Association Position Statement
