Counseling and Care with Dr. Maxwell and the Student Services Team (2theMax Podcast Episode 10) Dr. Maxwell is back with an all new series of 2theMax Podcast. Our next set of episodes is titled Student Supports in Schools and Beyond. This week, Dr. Maxwell welcomes two members from her Student Services Team, social worker Mr. James Transou Jr. and guidance counselor Mr. Jerrod Johnson. Johnson and Transou discuss their unconventional career pathway to student services, being males in a traditionally majority female profession, finding a work / life balance, and the intentionality in finding joy. Helping students understand complex emotions is challenging and Transou and Johnson share ways they balance emotional stress, help students overcome trauma, strengthen pride, and foster healthy emotional expressions.
