I have actually been to a counselor a couple of times because I used to have really bad anger issues.The counselor basically just talked to me and we played chess. It really helped because it would calm me down. I started to notice changes in my behavior and not get so mad so quickly as I used to do. One of the craziest things was that this guy was actually really good at chess so I could never beat him.
You never know when you may need a counselor. Whether you need one for anger issues, like me, or if you need one to help you with your fears. Counselors are always here to help us. I think the most amazing thing is that they know exactly what to do and what will help. Their presence seems to calm you down. Thank you for helping me with my anger issues.

Hey Zach! I am glad that you had such a positive experience and outcome with your counselor. Bet you even picked up some of his chess skills! I do agree with you that counselors are amazing in the way that they know how to deal with your specific needs. It is interesting though how everyone reacts differently to seeing a counselor. Can’t wait to see what you post next!
ReplyDeleteHey Zach! I am so glad that you decided to share your counseling story this week. I am also glad that you had such a good experience with your counselor because I know a few people who have not had as good of an experience. I have never heard of chess being used in counseling so I though that was really interesting and cool that your counselor used it to help you. Overall, great blog Zach!
