@Popobandar
You're right to look for professional assistance when it comes to mental health issues. They are complex and can have some bad effects if not treated. If a school counselor is not available to your then see if your town has a "Community Mental Health" system. Get an appointment to discuss your concerns.

Mental health is too important an issue to leave it in the hands of people who are not experts or just getting responses here at SW.

@Popobandar: Then get some advice from a mental health professional as well as some literature and then pass it on to her parents.

You will have done as much as can do under the circumstances.
