A school psychologist is a type of psychologist that works within the schools to help children with emotional, social and academic issues.
The goal of school psychology is to collaborate with parents, teachers, and students to promote a healthy learning environment that focuses on the needs of children.
How do we do that?
*Work with individual students and groups of students to deal
with behavioral problems, academic difficulties, disabilities and
other issues.
*Work with teachers and parents to develop techniques to deal
with home and classroom behavior.
*Work with parents and teachers about how to manage crisis
situations at home or at school.
*Help teachers with understanding more about child
development, behavioral problems and behavior management
techniques.
