Do You Know Your School Counseling Blind Spots?

School for School Counselors Podcast

Hey there! Ever thought about how your own thoughts and blind spots might be shaping how you connect with others at work? In this latest episode, we're taking a close look at some tricky stuff that can trip up even the most experienced counselors: confirmation biases.
We're exploring how confirmation biases work as sneaky blind spots in school counseling, subtly guiding decisions and interactions as counselors lean towards information that aligns with their existing beliefs.

We'll explore the ins and outs of how our biases can affect our relationships with students, our colleagues, and our campuses as a whole. I'll share some cool strategies to shake off those biases and make our schools more inclusive and awesome places to learn.
Tune in for a chat that'll get you thinking and arm you with the tools for caring and effective counseling, all while maintaining a positive and empowered perspective. Can't wait for you to join the conversation!
