Hi and Hello from Nicole! :)

Ah...My first blog post!!
Just wanted to take this time and introduce myself and to welcome everyone to the Cheerful Counseling Blog!! 

Just wanted to take this time to introduce myself... My Name is Nicole, and I am a graduate student studying School Counseling!! My head is full of ideas...and I spend a great deal of time creating and thinking of counseling ideas, games, and activities that can benefit me now and in my future practice :) So, I decided to start this blog and share ideas with fellow School Counseling students and School Counselors that are already practicing. 

How did I come up with the name? Well that was the easy part...sort of (lol). I wanted the name to describe me and counseling in some way and then it came to me! Many who know me would agree that I am mighty CHEERFUL..then the name "Cheerful Counseling" came to life! 

My goal is to cater to counseling at all grade levels (elementary, middle, and high) sharing ideas with the counselors and counselors-to-be (like myself).  

Now having included that piece...I will leave you all with a freebie that you can grab from my TeachersPayTeachers store! This is my B.U.L.L.Y Acronym poster that will look great in any classroom or School Counseling office :) This is a great way to give students (elementary students in particular for this one!) alternatives to bullying...making this a great freebie download!

I am currently working on the "Cheerful Counseling" facebook and Pinterest Page, where you all will be able to follow me soon! Details in upcoming blog posts! 

I was so eager to blog on here for the first time :) Now I am looking forward to many more posts! Take care everyone!!
