Bridging Education and Employment: Empower Your Child for Lifelong Success”
Hi, I’m Monica Spiegel, a dedicated Vocational Counselor at OPTIONS Transitions to Independence, a postsecondary boarding school for students with learning disabilities. My passion is empowering students through vocational training, guiding them toward achieving their career goals, and gaining the skills necessary for lifelong success.

The Importance of Vocational Skills
Vocational skills are essential for fostering independence and building self-esteem. These skills provide young adults with the practical tools needed to secure employment, thrive in their chosen careers, and contribute meaningfully to their communities. By focusing on vocational training, we help students bridge the gap between education and employment, ensuring they are well-prepared for the workforce.
My Approach to Vocational Counseling
My approach to vocational counseling is both holistic and strength-based. I recognize that each student has unique talents and strengths, and I tailor my counseling methods to harness these attributes. My holistic approach considers all aspects of a student’s life, including their personal interests, goals, and challenges, ensuring a comprehensive support system that promotes overall well-being and career readiness.
