High School Counseling Conversations®

What I Wish I Knew as a Beginning School Counselor [HSCC Favorite]


Listen Later

Starting out as a high school counselor is both exciting and overwhelming—and there’s a lot you don’t learn until you’re in the role. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the top three things I wish I knew when I was just beginning my counseling career. From navigating tricky relationships with parents and colleagues to connecting with hard-to-reach students, these lessons are ones I wish I could go back and share with my younger self.

Whether you’re brand new to high school counseling or still preparing for the role, this episode offers honest encouragement to help you grow with confidence. You’ll also hear practical advice on avoiding common mistakes, finding meaningful professional development, and embracing the challenges that come with stepping out of your comfort zone.
