Mental Health Resources
Grand Blanc Community Schools is proud to partner with many area resources to provide mental health intervention and counseling for our students and families, either on an ongoing or emergency basis.
Please contact your school counselor or student liaison if you think your child is in need of help and you need assistance. If you are experiencing and emergency mental health crisis, please call 911.
Easterseals is now serving Grand Blanc Schools FULL TIME onsite with therapy for students!
Grand Blanc High School now has an on-site LMSW available by appointment from Easterseals of Michigan, Julie Doyle. Julie is an experienced clinician, chosen for her expertise with youth, experience in a school setting, and in trauma services. She is also certified as a school social worker. Julie will see students on a referral basis, onsite at GBHS. She will be supported by Katie Hendricks, Clinical Supervisor and Katie Kogelmann, Director of Genesee Family Services.
Parents/Guardians will be contacted by a counselor before any student is referred to Easterseals of Michigan. Easterseals bills Medicaid, Medicare, and most insurance plans. Registration (intake) with Easterseals can be done at the school or the local Easterseals office and will require a legal guardian to be present. We hope that this additional service will allow students who have therapy needs to see a licensed and trusted individual while relieving issues such as transportation and scheduling that might interfere with a student getting the support they need. Holly and Clarkston Schools both have similar partnerships with Easterseals.
If you have questions about this new partnership, please contact your student’s counselor.

As always, call 911 if you feel there is immediate danger. The resources below list alternative contacts and resources if danger is not imminent.
