The end of the year is a great time to reflect on the highlights of the past 12 months!
2016 was a great year in so many respects…one of my favorite highlights for The Helpful Counselor is that over 500,000 NEW readers stopped by for a visit…Can you believe it? I even did a double take…What an honor! You guys seriously rock.
It really is amazing! I went from being the “lone wolf” counselor in a rural school district to having a network of counselors all over the world….if you’re not already part of that super awesome network -> What are you waiting for?
Join The Helpful Counselor’s Facebook groups ASAP! There’s one for play therapy and counseling activities and one for counseling books, and there’s also a group for me to pick my readers’ brains and share freebies.
So you might be asking yourself what a half million readers checked out while they visited The Helpful Counselor…to satisfy that curiosity and to share the top tips of 2016, I whipped up a list of the top 16 posts for 2016.
There are over 200 ideas in the posts below. Some provide insight into the triggers of certain behaviors, while others provide practical activities that you can put into place right away.
Whether you are looking for a great book or if you are starting your internship, I am sure you will find something helpful!
