Counseling & Mental Health Support

School counseling and mental health support are essential services that help students cope with various challenges they may face. School counselors play a crucial role in providing students with the necessary tools and resources to navigate academic, personal, and social issues. NCISD School Counselors, District Crisis Intervention Counselors, and our Community Mental Health partners are available and ready to support our students and families.

Accessing Counselors

School counselors will be available to meet with students and take appointments during normal operating hours.  Counselors can be contacted by email or phone.  Contact information for your school counselor can be found on your campus website.

At Risk Counselor Specialist

Parents/Guardians can contact the district At-Risk Counselor Specialist during normal operating hours for community and mental health resources. The At-Risk Counselor Specialist service area is district-wide. For assistance, please contact ARCS via email.
