When it comes to mental health, they do this by: 
  • Increasing awareness of mental health in schools 
  • Refer students with mental health issues to mental health professionals, but also provide short-term counseling or crisis intervention if needed
  • Being aware of signs and symptoms of possible mental illness, such as sudden changes in grades or attendance, disciplinary problems, or visible problems at home.
  • Focus on individual students who may be struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety or management of anger.
  • Provide resources and support for teachers, administrators, and parents
  • "Although school counselors typically do not act as long-term therapists, they help foster an environment where mental health stigma is erased, help bridge the gap between student and community resources, and make sure the developmental needs of all students are met."
