Program Description
In this one-hour professional development webinar, school counselors will build a complete framework for designing effective short-term individual counseling plans. Grounded in CBT and SFBC evidence and the current literature on brief interventions for youth, participants will learn how to structure intentional 6-8 session counseling plans that move beyond "seeing students until things get better" and toward purposeful, measurable intervention.
The session walks participants through each stage of a structured counseling plan, including case conceptualization, collaborative SMART goal development, session-by-session planning, progress monitoring, and intentional closure. School counselors will leave with a practical framework they can immediately apply to individual counseling cases across a variety of presenting concerns.
Learning Objectives

Develop a brief case conceptualization using the Four-P framework.
