Abstract 

The purpose of this qualitative study was to identify how counselors are currently addressing the increasing mental health issues of their youths so that they can have proper personal development.  To accomplish this goal, three research questions were formulated to guide this study: 1) What are the experiences of counselors who provide support to learners who struggle with mental health issues?; 2) In what ways do counselors perceive their role as shifting as they work with these youths?; and 3) How do guidance and counseling services and programs support the development achievement of youths struggling with mental health issues?  Sample were chosen from suburban towns Ikeja, Lagos, and currently serve as the chair or director of the town’s Guidance Department.  Data was collected from three sample through a series of semi-structured, in-depth interviews.  Data was analyzed using general inductive analysis, and was coded using multiple strategies, including open and axial coding. From the findings of this research, three noteworthy conclusions were drawn.  First, in order to support all youth’s mental development, towns must support all youths emotionally, providing further support for the relationship between development achievement and mental health.  Second, the model of town counseling services has not progressed as our knowledge of how to support youths has evolved.  And finally, programmatic intervention can work for general education youths when they are systematically need-based and focus on relationship building.
