Fostering Post-Pandemic Resilience Among Students and Stakeholders Using Solution-Focused Scaling

Abstract

While helping students transition to a post-pandemic future, school counselors may inadvertently be overlooking a vital source of resiliency: strengths, opportunities, and resources in the student’s past. By using solution-focused scaling, school counselors can enhance students’ well-being by identifying and amplifying how they have already successfully navigated extraordinary challenges they have endured. The solution-focused scaling approach is an effective and efficient way to empower students as they transition to being back in the classroom.
