Whew! You have counseled the victims. You have counseled and yelled at the bullies!

And they are still running their mouths and hurting innocent students!

Remember the Bully Zapper motto – “Keep Trying!”

Our school has an in-house counseling program through our county health department.

These therapists have an office right in the school, and we use them for mental health emergencies also! They also provide in-service training to our staff on ADHD, Depression, and other common disorders.

We recommend counseling for both the bully and the victim. Often, the victim’s parent or guardian will enroll their child. This is so wonderful for the victim because now they have another person to talk to for support.

The therapist is also another set of eyes and ears for the victim. They also report any more bullying to us. More information from an adult gives the school staff more authority to discipline the bully, and possibly remove him/her from the general school population.

Most of your schools don’t have in-school counseling programs. But, don’t worry! I then refer the bully and the victim to outside therapists in the community!

You can get a disclosure statement signed and still get information from this community therapist! “Where there is a will, there is a way!”
