School Counselors’ Role In Supporting Teen Mental Health: Parents Guide Released

Mission Prep (866-845-1391), a provider of teen mental healthcare with branches across California and Virginia, has authored a new parents guide to the role of the school counselor.

-- Mission Prep’s clinical team has authored a comprehensive new guide on the role school counselors play in both supporting good mental health among teenagers and identifying teens in need.

Mission Prep is committed to being both a trusted provider of residential, inpatient, and outpatient mental healthcare for teens, and to being a trusted resource with advice guides for parents and guardians who have a teenager facing a mental health issue. As such, in their new guide, they explain the vital role played by school counselors, who are often the first port of call for students, and who are often credited with the early identification of mental health issues like anxiety and depression in students.

The clinical team at Mission Prep highly regards the work of school counselors, and as their new guide explains, a counselors’ referral is typically seen as a hugely valuable piece of a teen’s mental health puzzle, giving insights that their own team will use to begin developing a personal care plan.

For worried parents, a school counselor may also be a good first place to start, and though referrals often come from teachers, most counselors will work closely with parents to develop a support plan that both covers school and a student’s home life.

As Mission Prep’s clinical team explained in their new guide, school counselors can also provide more holistic support, which may cover study strategies, stress minimization, healthy relationship building, and more. That’s why, as their team explained, they have a highly positive relationship with school welfare teams, because their treatment plans take a similar view to mental health—not only working to treat an acute issue but working to create lifelong positive changes and develop positive behaviors and ways of thinking that teens can take with them throughout their life.
