Individual Counseling

Based on student need, 1:1 counseling for academic, college/career, and social-emotional development. 
 

Individual Counseling at the school level is not intended to replace, but rather support intensive therapeutic services.  The MMS Counseling Department most frequently utilizes brief solution-focused therapy when working with students.  Please speak with the Counselor if you believe your student needs additional supports, or click below to request a session for a student.
