Guidance Counsellors
Kierra Jones and Bruce McAllister
At St Patrick’s College Gympie, we are fortunate to have two Guidance Counsellors available to support the social, emotional and wellbeing needs of our students.
Kierra and Bruce provide a safe, supportive and confidential environment where students can talk through challenges, develop positive coping strategies, build confidence and strengthen their resilience. They are available to help students navigate a range of concerns, including wellbeing, friendships, learning, behaviour and emotional health.
We value strong partnerships between school and home and encourage families to reach out if they have any concerns about their child’s wellbeing. Our Guidance Counsellors are happy to work alongside students and families to identify appropriate support and help each student feel safe, supported and ready to learn.
