For parents

Help without taking over.

CounselArc gives you a weekly snapshot, a conversation guide, and a way to collaborate on decisions — while leaving your student in charge of their own story.

The parent dashboard

One page. The right signal.

No logs to dig through. No raw chat transcripts. A clear summary of momentum, what changed this week, and one thoughtful thing to talk about at dinner.

  • Weekly momentum score — trend, not gotcha
  • What your student chose to share this week
  • One conversation starter with context
  • Approval queue for matrix weights and profile posts

What you can do — and can't

The right line between support and control.

CounselArc is explicit about what a parent can do on behalf of a student — and what the student alone decides.

You can
  • See a weekly momentum and activity snapshot
  • Suggest weights on a shared decision matrix
  • Approve a matrix scenario before it's finalized
  • Approve profile posts before they publish
  • Leave supportive comments (visible to student)
  • Export your family's full record anytime (JSON or PDF)
You can't
  • Edit your student's reflections or essays
  • Overwrite your student's matrix weights
  • Publish or un-publish a profile without consent
  • Read raw AI conversation transcripts
  • Delete logged experiences
  • See friends' comments on shared artifacts
Start together

A shared record is better than a shared calendar.

Your student gets their own account. You get a parent view. The two are linked by permission, not by override.
