Welcome back to another episode of School Counseling Simplified! We’re just TWO days away from Summer Summit, my virtual conference for school counselors happening June 11th and 12th! This two-day event is packed with amazing topics, live Q&A sessions, and even a virtual happy hour. For just $39, you’ll get your seat at the summit plus your first month inside the IMPACT membership!

Today I’m joined by Brandon Gernux (he/they), an elementary school counselor from Santa Ana, CA, and one of our Summer Summit speakers! Brandon brings such valuable insight into making Tier 1 classroom lessons more inclusive for all brains. He’s passionate about bridging the gap between school counseling and neurodivergent disability, and today’s conversation is all about practical ways to infuse anti-ableist, inclusive practices into your everyday counseling work.

You’ll hear us talk about:

  • What neurodiversity means and how to talk about it with students

  • Why Tier 1 supports matter and how they can create a more inclusive school culture

  • Brandon’s sensory exploration classroom lesson idea

  • How to create sensory-safe spaces around your school

  • Why you don’t need to do everything at once as a new counselor, and what to focus on instead

Brandon is beginning a PhD in Education with an emphasis on Disability Studies this fall, and he is truly a thoughtful and inspiring voice in the counseling space. You’ll love hearing from him today and at Summer Summit!

Don’t miss out!
