One of a school counselor’s most important jobs is to help our students make choices and practice behaviors that are positive and healthy. By examining the relationships between thoughts, feelings and behaviors with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy strategies counselors can do just that. 

Never before, however, have counselors had to be so creative in finding new ways to bring counseling techniques into a school setting. We often have only a few sessions with students, and now we have to connect and build coping skills ONLINE too!

This brief workshop will help school counselors working with adolescents compassionately use a five part CBT model to help teens change negative thought patterns to positive ones and teach young people that they are capable of handling anything that comes their way.  We will take a special look at how these strategies can be used online and in the context of the pandemic.

Participants will learn:

• What is CBT and why is it effective for teens

• How to use a CBT 5 part model

• How can it be used in a school setting

• Tools and strategies that can be used online and in person
