Career support
Most young people do not know what they want to be when they grow up. However, many people have one area of interest or another. While you do not have to figure out your future just yet, it is helpful to talk to a counselor to find your strengths and skills to pick the right higher-level classes or colleges when you are ready.
Emotional support
Even young people and children of all ages have problems. Just because a person is young doesn’t mean that their problems aren’t important.
