Ms Neilson’s primary focus is to provide counselling for students and parents of the school community. She is a trained Secondary School teacher and now Counsellor and is a member of the New Zealand Association of Counsellors bound by a Code of Ethics. The times when she will break confidentiality is when a student is unsafe or is suicidal. 95% of students self refer. Other referrals come from deans, members of staff and parents who have concerns. Any parent who wants to contact Ms Neilson regarding their son or daughter may feel free to do so.
