Private High School Counselor??

I live in Augusta Ga( 2 hrs south of Atlanta)I want to get a Private High School Counselor, where should I look?? I'm a freshman but I want to go to a top school so I need someone to tell me what things I REALLY need to do to get prepared.Im already on Model UN, Student Council,National Honor Society, Latin Club and Yearbook.I'm Class President. I also am on the American Red Cross Youth Board and Social Cotillion(Etiquette and Ballroom). I have a 4.0 and am taking all honors classes and the only AP class I can as a Freshman.I feel like Im on the right track but I dont want to miss anything and I want someone who can tell me what I need to do, talk me through my worries, help me get with leadership and internship programs and help me for the next four years. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If your parents will be paying for it, have you asked them?
They are often very expesnive. I think you can learn just as much by reading books and through CC and similar websites.
And strive to be yourself, rather than someone's vision of an Ivy League prospect

HECA is a professional organization for independent counselors, so you could look at their directory:
Higher Education Consultants Association
