Guidance Counselor Jobs in View Park, CA

A Guidance Counselor, also known as a School Counselor, plays a crucial role in school administration. They provide support to students, helping them with their academic, career, and emotional development. They often work closely with teachers, administrators, and parents to ensure that students are getting the help they need. Guidance Counselors also play a role in crisis intervention, working with students who are struggling with issues such as bullying, family problems, or mental health concerns. They may also help with college and career planning, providing information and resources to students as they prepare for life after high school.

A Guidance Counselor should be a good listener and communicator, and should have strong problem-solving and decision-making skills. They must also be compassionate and empathetic, with a deep understanding of child psychology and development. A master's degree in school counseling or a related field is typically required, and most states require school counselors to be certified or licensed. Prior to becoming a Guidance Counselor, a person may have roles such as a Teacher, a Social Worker, or a School Psychologist, all of which can provide valuable experience and skills for the counseling role.
