In this episode of the School for School Counselors Podcast, Steph Johnson addresses the evolving role of school counselors in behavior intervention on campuses. Steph highlights the growing need for counselors to assist not only students but also staff members, who may unintentionally exacerbate student behaviors. She discusses common challenges, such as teacher dysregulation and its impact on students, and provides actionable strategies for counselors to model emotional regulation, train staff, and offer support without seeming condescending. Steph also touches on the importance of mindfulness and solution-focused conversations for promoting a healthier school environment. 00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:25 Behavior Intervention in Schools01:41 Supporting Your Staff03:57 Understanding Staff Challenges05:03 Teacher Interaction Styles13:35 Promoting Emotional Regulation23:57 The Importance of Support Systems26:07 Conclusion and Upcoming Events*********************************References/Resources:Gregoire, Simon & Lachance, Lise & Taylor, Geneviève.
