Services

The Counselling Team at Burnside High School comprises five permanent counsellors with Masters Degree qualifications in counselling and psychology. They are assisted and supported by counselling interns on placement working towards a Master of Counselling degree.

Students are able to make appointments with Counsellors by emailing the counsellor or by filling out an appointment request form. In counselling, students have a legal right to confidentiality, unless what is shared concerns imminent risk to the student’s or another person’s safety, and students are made aware of this as part of the counselling process.
