School Counselor Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent my career supporting students through challenging times, building trust, and linking assessment to practical support. In a busy school year, I helped a cohort of 120 students by mapping wellbeing plans and coordinating with families and teachers. I’ve found that a calm, consistent approach makes a real difference, and I’m confident I can bring that steadiness to [Company Name]. In this role I focus on listening, crisis response, and targeted interventions. I’m comfortable with brief behavioural plans, risk assessments, and collaboration with external mental health services. I’ve used data from wellbeing surveys and attendance patterns to tailor supports and track progress, and I’m keen to bring that practice to your team. One example from my time at [Previous Company] stands out. A student cohort showed rising anxiety and disengagement, so I led a small group program and established a weekly check-in routine with classroom staff. Over two terms, disengagement indicators dropped and attendance improved significantly, while teachers reported better classroom dynamics and clearer escalation pathways. I’d welcome the chance to discuss how my experience aligns with [Company Name]. I’m available for a chat or a visit to talk through our shared approach to student wellbeing and crisis response. Kind regards, [Your Name]
