Counseling Services

The GA Counseling Department has 4 full-time and 1 part-time psychologists and counselors serving Lower, Middle, and Upper School students, faculty, staff, and parents.

Committed to the development of resiliency skills and social and emotional growth, the GA counseling department focuses on psycho-education, consultation, prevention, intervention, treatment, and referrals. Assistance is offered for a wide variety of issues including relationship difficulties, emotional conflicts, friendship and family concerns, time management, conflict resolution, and stress and anxiety reduction. All counseling contacts are confidential. Only in the unlikely event that an individual presents a danger to self or others or is at risk for harm will private information be judiciously shared, and then only in the interest of protection and safety. Parents are always consulted in crisis situations.
