Counseling Department
Zachary Nauschutz
Greetings!
My name is Zach Nauschutz, Elementary School Counselor at Capitol Hill Gifted and Talented Magnet. I have been at Capitol Hill since the 2018-2019 school year and have enjoyed getting to know and work with our Gifted and Talented students! I am available to provide students with a variety of supports throughout each school year:
- Counseling Classroom Lessons (weekly or bi-weekly):
- Emotional Regulation
- Academic Success Skills
- Bully Prevention
- College and Career Readiness
- Personal Safety Skills
- And much more!
- Small Group Counseling:
- Anxiety
- Social/Friendship Skills
- Emotional Regulation
- Impulse Control
- Family Transitions
- Grief
- Individual Counseling:
- I see students individually for many reasons. Students, staff and family members may reach out to request to meet with me.
- Individual counseling is short term; it is not therapy. Students who need additional support beyond individual counseling may be referred for therapy services. We work with teachers and families to connect with therapy services as needed.
- Individual counseling is confidential. We communicate information with staff and family members that will help them better support their student.
- 504 Coordinator
- I am the 504 plan coordinator for academic accommodations for my grade levels.
- And More!
Feel free to send me an email with any questions!
