Summary:

Recent developments in the world of athletics and academics are impacting the perceptions and demands being placed on student-athletes to succeed both on and off the field. This video shows how the school counselor can be particularly helpful in providing resources and support to student athletes and their families as they prepare for and navigate through this demanding maze of expectations and important decisions. Scenarios depict a male and female student-athlete at different points in their student-athletic academic, career, and personal/social development, and involve work with teachers, coaches, parents, and school counselors. Following the scenarios, a discussion with a parent, teaching professionals, coach/athletic director, and school counseling professionals and trainees depicts the reasons why student athletes may or may not seek counseling services, ideas for how these services can best be provided to student athletes and their families, and other contemporary topics that counseling professionals can best address when encountering student athletes who are in need.
