Hello Moulton Hawks!

Hello Moulton Hawks!
My name is Georgina Flores and this is my 6th year as your school counselor! I am here to support students in their social-emotional, academic and college/career growth. School counseling supports children's growth in managing their emotions, communicating their needs, building self-esteem, improving their problem-solving abilities, and more. It is not uncommon for children to need support in dealing with the stress of school, family changes, peer conflicts or significant life events such as losing a loved one (pets included), coping with a divorce, or moving.
To participate in individual or group counseling, students can be referred by their parent(s), staff members, or can self-refer. In addition to the option of individual and group counseling, I teach 6 Social-Emotional Lessons in ALL classrooms throughout the school year. These lessons cover 4 core areas of learning: Skills for Learning, Emotion Management, Empathy and Problem Solving. Please reach out if you have any questions about counseling services.
Sincerely,
Ms. Flores

Second Step Lessons
Second Step is a social-emotional learning curriculum delivered to all students through classroom guidance lessons conducted by the school counselor. Second Step is designed to build a foundation of social-emotional skills such as empathy, emotion management, decision making and problem solving to increase student's success in schools and prepare them to become responsible citizens.
Conversations between the student and counselor are considered confidential. However, there are exceptions to this confidentiality. If a counselor has reason to believe that a student is being harmed, neglected, or is a danger to him/herself or others, the counselor has the legal, ethical, and professional responsibility to report such concerns to the parents or the appropriate authorities.
