School or Work Adjustments
Children and adults alike sometimes have trouble with school or work adjustments to an unfamiliar environment, such as a new school or workplace.
The problem may stem from the individual’s unique disposition, as well as psychological disorders, traumatic experiences, and much more. This is where school / work adjustment counseling comes in.
At Eugene Therapy, we utilize a comprehensive support system to help children and adults develop the necessary skills to adjust to a school or work environment. We can help children and adults enhance their performance in each respective situation. Although some of these situations can be dealt with through support from family and friends, we understand that certain complex issues require professional intervention and counseling. We are here to help. Our counselors provide you with tools and expertise to help resolve adjustment difficulties in a safe and efficient manner.
Adults
With the help of a work adjustment counselor at Eugene Therapy, adults are able to learn not only how to survive but also thrive in a workplace through specialized training activities aimed at developing good work habits and job retention skills. These can include attendance, punctuality, productivity, and the balance between working independently, with others and/or under supervision.
Individuals who may require work adjustment counseling often suffer from issues such as:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder)
Children
Similarly, the primary purpose of a school adjustment counselor is to help your child manage their challenging academic program while developing the skills to function within the school’s social network. Through one-on-one meetings in a nurturing setting, your child is provided with the moral and emotional support that they need in order to deal with any underlying problems and insecurities. This, in turn, helps ensure homework completion, improved performance on tests and enhanced confidence in social situations.
Children who may be eligible for school adjustment counseling experience issues such as:
- Bullying
- Academic difficulties
- Interpersonal problems
