My name is Cameron Beeler and I have been a School Counselor since 2018. I am very excited to be working with your child. I have a Master’s Degree in Education in School Counseling from Liberty University and a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology from USC Aiken. My passion is to help children strive in their academic, career, emotional, personal, and social development. My passion is also to help your child(ren) enhance their SEL (Social Emotional Learning). SEL is "...the process through which all young people and adults acquire and apply the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to develop healthy identities, manage emotions, and achieve personal goals and collective goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain supportive relationships, and make responsible and caring decisions" (CASEL, 2020). School counselors strive to empower students by helping them succeed in school and life by teaching skills for learning, friendship, and health and safety. We strive to help children by promoting respect for self and others, wise decision making, and by teaching personal responsibility. Please feel free to contact me by phone or email. I look forward to working with you and your SRAA Bobcat!
Parents,
This school year is completely different than any other, but we will get through this together. We are a family, a community, and I am here for you every step of the way. Feel free to reach out to me with any needs. These needs may include assistance in counseling, clothing, housing, utilities, Christmas assistance, school supplies, resources, outside counseling referrals, etc. Sometimes we have to ask for help, and I am encouraging you to lean on me! I have many resources and would love to help!

- Anxiety: "Anxiety is like a wave. It will come and then it will go. When our kids are on that wave it can be scary, but we don't need to lift them off. If we can ride the wave with them, with stillness and presence, rather than needing to change it, we make our courage and our calm more available to them, than our anxiety about their anxiety. When we believe the wave won't break them, they can start to believe it too."
