EDUCATION AND SCHOOL

Every other issue I am discussing on this page can impact one’s educational or school adjustment and planning. Health, mental health, family stress, stress in school relationships, social skills, social support, learning challenges, self-awareness, work, and finances are all a part of educational adjustment.

So, much like with career counseling, educational counseling requires a holistic understanding, including possible cultural and social justice issues.

Goals include improving coping skills and reducing sources of stress, achieving a realistic educational plan and addressing challenges to learning.

If needed, I can refer you to a practice that does educational testing and we can use the results to help you make plans.
