Ms. LaMorte, School Counselor

My name is Ms. LaMorte and this will be my 7th year at St. Bede the Venerable as the School Counselor. I visit classrooms for guidance lessons, work with students in small groups, and check in with students individually throughout the school year. I have also coordinated some school wide activities over the past few years including BMX Rider, Matt Wilhelm’s Anti-bullying Assembly, The Chicago Bears “Bear Down on Bullies” Assembly, and Jr. High's Career Day. I am looking forward to seeing all of our students back in our building and excited to meet our new students and families! This is going to be a wonderful school year!

School Counseling FAQ
 
Q. Which students does a school counselor see?
A. A school counselor works with ALL students through classroom lessons, small group counseling, or short term individual counseling. Some topics may include teaching healthy coping skills, grief counseling, conflict resolution, and emotional regulation. 
 
Q. Is a school counselor the same as a therapist?
A. No, a school counselor supports students in the academic setting helping them to have a successful, safe, and happy school year. 
 
Q. How often will my child see the school counselor?
A. As a school counselor, I provide short term counseling to students (approximately 6-8 weeks). If a child requires additional support, I am happy to provide resources for mental health therapists or other community resources.
