School Counsellor

Hello Kalinda parents and carers!

This fortnight I am attaching some more local parenting support groups and information sessions. I will continue to keep my eyes peeled for great opportunities in our community.

Please be in touch if you would like any referral support or information about parenting and raising your child. You are not alone in the MANY challenges that parenting presents.

I work with directly with students, in consultation with parents and teachers about any concerns there may be around your child’s wellbeing. Issues might include:

• Stressful changes for children: separation, new baby, bereavement, family illness
• Anxiety, making friends and socialising
• Low self-esteem or needing to develop resilience
• Managing and understanding big emotions

As the school counsellor, I will ALWAYS work with families, students and teachers to create a supportive and welcoming learning environment.

If you do not wish you child to be referred to the counselling program, please contact the office.
