Research-Based School Counseling Spaces: Does Yours Make the Grade?
Manage episode 425321320 series 3367165
Can the design of your school counseling office really impact student well-being and performance? Join me, Steph Johnson, on the School for School Counselors Podcast as we unpack the essentials of creating a functional and calming counseling space. Drawing from both personal experiences and cutting-edge research, I guide you through the journey of setting up an environment that will not only support your students but also help you stay focused and calm. Whether you are a new counselor setting up your first office or a seasoned professional looking to refresh your space, you'll find practical advice that can make a significant difference in student engagement.
Throughout this episode, we emphasize the importance of intentionality in designing your space, highlighting how clutter can negatively impact focus and anxiety levels. Discover the unique role of school counselors in fostering a regulated environment, distinct from regular classrooms, and learn how to advocate for your true role amidst the challenges of being assigned non-counseling duties. We share inspiring stories and actionable steps to make your counseling office a sanctuary for student support. Plus, don't miss the chance to hear more about our Best Year Ever event coming soon!
