How a High School Counseling Curriculum Map Will Set You Up to Win This Year
Season 1 · Episode 141
lundi 26 août 2024 • Duration 16:59
Whether you’re still on summer break or have already kicked off a new school year, there’s one thing I think you need during this season: a curriculum map! While it’s very common for teachers to use this planning tool, I believe there are so many benefits for high school counselors to use it as well. In today’s episode, I’m sharing why you should create a curriculum map and how it sets you up for a successful school year.
One of the things I love about a curriculum map is that it helps you visually see the gaps in your program and ways you can meet those gaps to help better serve your counseling program and students. Even though the beginning of the school year is hectic, making this curriculum map at the start of the year allows you to have a vision and direction of where you’re headed. It also creates accountability for yourself and breaks down where you’re spending your time.
I know you have dreams and goals for your high school counseling program this school year. One of the best ways to achieve those dreams and goals is by creating a high school counseling curriculum map. This visual planning tool will be the ultimate game changer for you to have a successful school year. No matter where you are in the school year right now, make some time to create your own high school counseling curriculum map!

Highs and Lows of Working with Seniors with Brittany Slagle
Season 1 · Episode 140
lundi 19 août 2024 • Duration 37:17
You’ve waited four episodes to listen to the last episode in our grade-level counselor series. A student’s senior year is full of ups and downs, celebratory moments, and disappointments, and a senior counselor gets to experience it all with them. My guest on today’s episode, Brittany Slagle, experienced all of this and is sharing both what she loves and where she struggles in working with seniors.
I’ve talked on the podcast before about the stress and responsibilities of being a senior counselor. Brittany discusses how she managed the bigger administrative tasks of graduation, scholarship deadlines, and test scores, along with the smaller tasks of her role. She admitted that working with seniors can feel intimidating, but building relationships always outweighs the stressors.
When I was a high school counselor, I loved working with seniors, and Brittany feels the exact same way. With this being her first year solely working with seniors, she has learned a lot and has kept notes on what she wants to do differently when she works with them again in three years. I loved her realistic perspective on the stressful, fun, and celebratory moments while working with seniors, and I know you will, too!

How to Know When It’s Time to Move On
Season 1 · Episode 131
lundi 17 juin 2024 • Duration 35:27
The end-of-year stress and exhaustion can bring up a lot of emotions for school counselors. And when it’s finally summer break, you have the time to stop and reflect on what you want professionally going forward. When a school year wraps, I know many school counselors ask themselves, is it time for me to move on from this? It can be hard to sift through all you’re feeling and decide what your next step is. So, in this episode, I’m helping you examine when it’s time to move on from high school counseling when managing the weight of burnout.
There are many reasons why a school counselor would want to move on from their current position. Before going through them, I share some practical items you need to think through that will help you better understand what your next move is. Then, I discuss multiple scenarios you could find yourself in when thinking it’s time to move on. The breakdown of these scenarios will show you what you’re lacking in your current position or what you’re looking for in the future.
However, leaving your current position might not be what you need. Instead, you might find that you want to stay in your role, but certain things need to change. I discuss those items as well to help prepare you for those changes when you return to school in the fall. So, whether you know it’s time to move on or are staying with a few changes, I hope this episode provides you with support, guidance, and an understanding of what’s going to make you happy in your role as a high school counselor!

Research in School Counseling - 4 Categories and What to Do With Them with Sara of The Responsive Counselor
Season 1 · Episode 48
lundi 14 novembre 2022 • Duration 40:54
When you hear the word 'research', do you get excited or want to run the other way as fast as you can? I think many school counselors are the latter, and if you're one of them, you're going to learn so much in this episode all about research in school counseling!
We all want to create the most effective and comprehensive school counseling program possible, but it can be challenging to incorporate the most up-to-date research based practices and interventions.
Time is not on our side, so where do we go to learn about this research? How do we know if a certain intervention is the best fit for our specific school and group of students?
Our guest today, Sara of The Responsive Counselor, is here to answer all of these questions and more. She is breaking down the differences between best practices, research-based interventions, evidence-based interventions, and evidence-based practice. You'll walk away with a clearer understanding of these terms, and how you can incorporate them to make the biggest impact possible.

3 Ways to Help Your Failing Students Find Success
Season 1 · Episode 47
lundi 7 novembre 2022 • Duration 14:15
Let’s talk about a really common challenge that we face as high school counselors. It’s a challenge that often leaves us feeling defeated and put under a whole lot of (sometimes self-inflicted) pressure. Can you guess what it is? I’m talking about working with failing students.
We all have these students on our caseloads. They are the students who are behind in their classes, short on the credits they need to graduate, and reluctant to trust that we want to help them.
And yet, our failing students are also the ones who we get to know the best after earning their trust. We push them because we want to see them succeed, and it’s the best feeling in the world when they do. But let’s be real. This is tough work. Sometimes it feels like you’re fighting an uphill battle and that you’re the only one who cares.
If you’re feeling that way about some of your students, let’s change that today! Inside this episode you’ll hear my top three suggestions for helping your failing students find success. After listening, I think you’ll realize that you are doing more than enough, my friend!

Spooky, Scary School Counseling Stories: A Hilarious, Crowdsourced Episode
Season 1 · Episode 46
lundi 31 octobre 2022 • Duration 27:49
I asked you all to submit your SPOOKIEST counseling story: the one that makes you shudder to remember or makes you want to roll over in your grave of embarrassment.
Maybe it was a horror story THEN but maybe you’re ready to laugh about it now.
It could be a story so legendary that we wouldn’t believe it ourselves… or maybe it’s just something you’re thankful hasn’t happened on more than one occasion… because ONE time was MORE than enough.
Some of these stories have come in the form of audio voice notes and some are messages that y’all gave me in my DMs… but one thing is in common. They are all anonymous. No names, no Instagram handles… just stories!
I hope you’re as curious and captivated by these as I was… and still am.
