School Counselor, Megan
Reibel My role in the building is to provide confidential support to our students through short term support services, counseling, and consultation; I serve all students in grades 6 through 12. I am also able to provide students and families with referral recommendations to outside agencies, clinics and counselors (a compilation of resources is also available on our website). Appointments can be made by dropping by the counseling office, by phone, or by email. My voicemail is kept confidential; please feel free to leave detailed messages. My direct line is (206) 816-6016. Please note, I consider conversations confidential except those regarding self-harm, harm of others, or abuse. In these cases, typically parents/guardians are informed; appropriate administrators and, in some cases, Child Protective Services and the Police may be informed, as dictated by state law. What is the Peer Mentoring Class? The Peer
Mentoring Class is intended to offer juniors and seniors the
opportunity to develop leadership skills. Peer Mentors serve as
informed thoughtful and sensitive resources for students at The
Northwest School. Peer Mentors will learn skills that will aid in
serving as advocates, peer counselors and leaders within the
school. In and out of class the role of Peer Mentor involves taking
responsibility for working to understand the needs of the student
body. Peer Mentors as individuals and as a group will learn how to
support and guide students who may need a helping hand. It is also
a great way for juniors and seniors to get to know each other
better. In the
document section there is a description of the Peer
Mentoring class which provides student resources for grades
6-12. |
