*NEW* Courses: Professional Development Series: Approaching School Counseling from Inside Out

This professional development series is designed for school counselors who are interested in examining their own counseling practice. All three courses within this professional development series are 1-credit and delivered online (Synchronous and Asynchronous). While each course can be taken independently, the courses are designed to be taken in sequence.

Course instruction attends to the needs of the adult learner; meetings are interactive, reflective, and relevant to the work of the school counselor.

EDGC825.W01- Finding Your Theoretical Feet

In this course participants examine their philosophical perspectives on counseling to ground themselves in a theoretical approach. Attention is given to identifying the similarities and differences between counseling and psychotherapy, identifying and exploring assumptions related to why students get stuck, assumptions we have related to culture, ethnicity, and race, and the exploring the role school counselors have in the helping process. Participants leave class with a well-developed counseling philosophy and a framework for how they can promote their role to others.

In this course participants examine how and why students get “stuck” in their ruminating thoughts and/or behaviors that hinder their academic success or ability to connect with others. Drawing from a personalized theoretical approach to counseling, participants engage in thoughtful examination of the issues that keep a person “stuck” and create an intervention that is evidence based and delivered within a creative approach.

“I hope students leave my classes with bigger, broader questions about oppression in schools and classrooms, and I hope they continue developing ideas and plans about how to confront and disrupt these issues.”

“As human beings we are all very nuanced, and having an education system that only considers the mental and academic aspects of students is negligible; it isn’t profound. The fact that cura personalis is a core tenant of the Loyola School of Education really resonated with me.”

“Loyola’s core values—educating the whole person, service, leadership, justice, integrity, diversity (just to name a few!)—have allowed me to create purpose and meaning in my life. I was able to take profound personal self-inventory to become clear on where I was stuck and how to move forward with confidence, compassion, and creativity.”

“With 250 neighborhoods, art, culture, professional sports, music, and an amazing food scene, it’s impossible to run out of things to do and places to explore off-campus. Loyola students quickly learn why Baltimore’s nickname is Charm City. ”
