Community

ONCE A LASALLIAN

Our SJI International alumni community is strong and remains connected globally.

The school counselling programme at SJI International is an integral part of the school's support system. Our school counsellors work collaboratively with all school staff to support the social-emotional development of all our students. Our school counsellors provide comprehensive preventative and responsive services to support our student's mental and emotional well-being. We believe in the old adage - it takes a village to raise a child, and our school counsellors work alongside parents and families to support the well-being of students and their families. 

School counsellors at SJI International provide individual counselling and family consultations and facilitate student and parent workshops. School counsellors also provide consultation and training for teachers and parents on pertinent mental health issues and skills for first-line intervention and support. We also work closely with relevant external professionals and community agencies to support our student's mental health and emotional well-being.

Education and Preventive Programme

 

Our counsellors develop and conduct small and large group psycho-educational sessions for students on mental health issues and healthy coping strategies. Our counselling team provides training to equip teachers with the skills required to support our students. Parents can engage in our bespoke parent support programmes to support them in their parenting journey. Mental health resources are made available for students, parents and staff.

Therapeutic and Responsive Services

 

Our counselling team provides confidential individual and group counselling to our students and preventative psychoeducational sessions and workshops. Parents are welcome to consult the counselling team if they have concerns about their child’s mental health and emotional well-being. The counselling team organises regular information sessions and workshops for parents throughout the year. 

Our Counselling Team

 

Our team is made up of four highly qualified counsellors who advocate and care for all students. Our counsellors are trained in a diverse range of therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behaviour therapy, experiential-existential therapy, art therapy and mindfulness.
