  6. Guidance Counselor Myths! • My guidance counselor is too busy to care about talking to me about school problems or my grades… • If the counselor wants to talk to me, then I must be in trouble! • The counselor is just going to tell everyone about my problems, so I’ll just not tell anyone. • If I go talk to the counselor then I am crazy and there is something wrong with me… • The counselor will just boss me around and yell at me for messing up…. • NONE OF THESE THINGS ARE TRUE!

  7. Ok, Cool.
