228. Best of SCS: How to Teach Healthy vs Unhealthy Relationships

School Counseling Simplified Podcast

This December, we’re celebrating the season with some of the best episodes of School Counseling Simplified! Today, we’re revisiting one of our most popular episodes all about different ways we can teach unhealthy vs. healthy relationships.

The new year is coming sooner than we think and then soon after it will be February! February is full of exciting opportunities for school counselors, from National School Counseling Week to Valentine’s Day! It’s also the perfect time to teach students about healthy relationships and friendships. Many students may not have examples of positive relationships in their lives, making it essential to equip them with the knowledge and skills to build healthy connections. In this episode, I share Valentine’s-themed activities that make teaching this topic both fun and impactful. You’ll hear why it’s important to address healthy vs. unhealthy relationships, creative activity ideas, and tips for implementing them without added stress.

Some topics covered in this episode are:

• Why teaching healthy relationships and friendships is critical for students.

• Examples of Valentine’s-themed activities to make lessons engaging.

• Simple strategies to implement these activities with ease.

Tune in for practical tips and inspiration to help your students build positive connections!
