    Counseling Philosophy

    Amanda M. Lillibridge
    As a professional school counselor, I follow the competencies outlined by the
    American School Counselor Association (ASCA). I firmly believe in a comprehensive
    school counseling program that addresses academic achievement, career planning, and
    personal and social development. I believe in using a developmental core curriculum
    designed appropriately based on the ASCA Student Standards. Additional instruction and
    support will be implemented based on student population and need. Lastly, I believe in
    utilizing individual counseling, group counseling, and outside and community resources to
    meet the needs of students overall development.
    I believe in providing a safe space for all students and to show every child that walks
    through my office doors that they are cared about and supported. I believe in inclusive
    practice and strive to be an advocate for all children regardless of gender, race, sexual
    orientation, religion, socioeconomic status, and academic and behavioral background.
    Additionally, I understand that each student is an individual and I must counsel them as such
    while considering their individual characteristics and unique situation. My personal
    philosophy is very much centered on developing a relationship with every student and
    putting their needs at the center of my work.
    No matter my skill level and expertise, I cannot be a successful professional school
    counselor alone. I believe in the power of collaboration and consultation. I strive to
    appropriately collaborate with administration, teachers, and other outside resources to
    provide the best possible care for my students. I also do this while considering the
    importance of confidentiality and all ethical guidelines in place by the American Counseling
    Association.
    Ultimately, I want the comprehensive counseling program I serve in to be successful.
    I believe in using data to measure the success of my personal abilities and the success of the
    program altogether. This can be as simple as a scaling question when a student enters and
    exits my office, such as between 1-10 how stressed do you feel today. Or it can as complex
    as comparing test scores across grade levels, subjects, and among other schools in our state.
    In closing, I am a strong advocate of life-long learning. Although my formal training
    may be complete, we can always obtain more knowledge and skills to continue professional
    development. This may include attending relevant workshops and conferences. However,
    when necessary, I also believe in seeking out other opportunities to help myself and my
    colleagues better serve the students in our building and district.
