- Refer students to external professionals for ongoing counseling, therapy, or intervention when required.
- Create a safe and non-judgmental space where students feel comfortable to discuss even the most sensitive issues.

For Parents

- Effectively communicate concerns regarding their child’s behavioral and mental health challenges.
- Guide parents on supportive approaches at home, while reducing fear and stigma associated with mental health.
- Educate parents on the long-term consequences of neglecting behavioral and emotional concerns.
- Conduct periodic online awareness sessions on understanding the adolescent mindset and effective parenting strategies.

For Teachers

- Conduct workshops and awareness sessions on the adolescent mindset, mental health, and behavioral management.
- Equip teachers to identify signs of learning difficulties, emotional distress, and behavioral challenges in students.
- Support faculty in handling sensitive classroom situations with empathy and effectiveness.
- Provide strategies to engage with students whose parents may be in denial about learning, behavioral or even undiagnosed mental health issues.

- Ability to maintain confidentiality and foster trust.
- Professional integrity and strong ethical values.
- Skilled at creating awareness sessions and workshops tailored to different audiences.

Academic Qualifications

- Master’s degree in Clinical or Counseling Psychology from a top recognized institution.
- Minimum of 5 years’ experience in counseling adolescents and addressing adolescent-specific mental health issues.
- Valid licensure or certification, as required.
