Emotional Behavioral Counseling

We are resourced to help our students in dealing with various emotional issues they suffer from. We provide tools and techniques to help them develop emotional awareness and use their emotional intelligence to thrive through life's challenges.

Social and Interpersonal Counseling

The happy hive social and interpersonal counseling programmes especially are curtailed to help teenagers to be safe, feel good about themselves, and engage in respectful relationships.

Educational Learning Counseling

The Happy Hive Academic Counseling plans are also applied to improve study skills or provide assistance with school-related problems that interfere with Academic performance (e.g., learning disabilities).

Academic and Career Guidance
