Ms. Lemke also offers one on one short term counseling to any student in Suring Elementary school. These are short sessions that are just the student and Ms. Lemke. Since this is with young children, many times this looks like a lot of play therapy with the student for 15-30 minutes to address what the student is struggling with to help them in school. Ms. Lemke can meet with students for 6-8 weeks as a school counselor; however after 6-8 weeks, if the student needs more time, then a referral to a mental health therapist would be advised. This is not to turn the student away, but to get them the most appropriate services.
