The Counseling Center provides students with individual sessions designed to explore student interest, values, aptitude, and background. The center assists students along the career path to match theses variables with how they wish to live their lives. Working with students to develop an understanding of themselves and practical steps for students to take in furthering their understanding of self is a vital role of the Counseling Center. Ultimately the counselors work with students in matching their developing interests with a career field that is intrinsically interesting and satisfying.

Of the many factors that contribute to students making the best career and college choices, an understanding of personality type is among the most useful. Traditionally, the emphasis has been placed on helping students identify their interests, skills, and values. Because these variables fluctuate, counselors have learned that the key to finding the best college and career for all students is using their natural strengths and becoming aware of their natural blind spots.  Naviance provides Do What You Are, an innovative Personality Type assessment system that helps students learn more about themselves and assists counselors in guiding students and families about post-secondary opportunities. The counseling center utilizes this assessment as a very large first step in the process of career development.
