Co-Presenter: DoDEA Wide Student Support Services Summit
DoDEA Europe West: BSEL Through a Collaborative Lens
This week long summit held in Georgia focused on the awesome work of all Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) schools' Student Support Services team leaders worldwide. It was informative, inspirational and gave clear, forward thinking next steps in order to continue to educate, engage, and empower military-connected students to succeed in a dynamic world.
​
In this session, participants met the DoDEA Europe West Student Support Services team and listened as we discussed how we collaborated and aligned student support services through an MTSS lens to break down previous barriers to providing services to students. The team discussed providing behavioral, social and emotional learning (BSEL) from the school-wide services, of which a Comprehensive School Counseling Program is an integral component, to the individual student while describing the roles of the school counselor, school psychologist, and special educators.

Nourishing Families in Crisis: From Devastation to Unification
S.U.G.A.R., We Can Get Through This: Creating a space for families to heal and learn to thrive
As therapists and counselors, we know how important it is to create a safe, supportive space for our clients as they work through their individual therapeutic journeys. The same need for acceptance, understanding and sustained healing holds true when working with families. Within family therapy sessions lies an opportunity to listen deeply and increase each family member’s capacity for creating stronger bonds while working on the deeper issues that can tear them apart. Acknowledging all voices within a family and helping them heal together – something we excel at in the counseling profession – opens up doors of knowledge that foster resilience and ultimately allow families to learn how to thrive despite any tumultuous life circumstances they may encounter. This presentation will be a re-centering in and reminder of the framework we need to provide in order for every other aspect to align and fall into place.
