AISNSW School Counsellors' Conference 2025

The Kaleidoscope of Human Experience


Schools are increasingly responding to constantly changing and multifaceted student mental health needs. School counsellors’ provide a crucial lens in navigating the complexity of student presentations and the processes that provide support. 

Inspired by the kaleidoscope, this conference will highlight the ever-changing and beautiful patterns of human experiences, provide opportunities for reflection, consider the vital role of counsellors, and strengthen our approach to supporting student needs.

At the AISNSW School Counsellors' Conference, you will be informed of current trends and issues, consider opportunities to enhance the mental health and wellbeing of students, and strengthen your clinical skills and practices. Connecting with colleagues from around the state, the conference seeks to inspire and equip you in your role.
