Implemented through communication activities, counseling, guidance, and interventions by a team of professional psychologists and caring teachers, the program supports students by:

• Timely resolution of concerns: Experts listen, share advice, and help children choose appropriate coping strategies. They also equip students with necessary skills for academics, communication, and stress management.
• Strengthening student-family bonds: Students and families can participate in school psychological counseling to resolve conflicts and better understand each other. Resolving conflicts promptly helps children develop mentally and ensures they have a supportive family during difficult times.
• Helping teachers understand students’ psychology: Generational gaps often hinder teachers’ understanding of students’ emotions. Therefore, school psychological counseling is provided to teachers to better understand student psychology, enabling appropriate education, teaching, and care.

Timely school psychological counseling significantly reduces the incidence of these psychological disorders.
