Who are School Counselors?
School counselors are certified/licensed educators with a minimum of a master's degree in school counseling, making them uniquely qualified to address all students’ academic, career and social/emotional development needs by designing, implementing, evaluating and enhancing a comprehensive school counseling program that promotes and enhances student success. School counselors are vital members of the education team and help maximize student success.
The Role of School Counselors at NBH:
The School Counseling Department at North Bay Haven Charter Academy supports all students in applying academic achievement strategies, managing emotions and developing interpersonal skills, and planning for post-secondary options. Counselors collaborate with school staff members, parents, and outside agencies in meeting the needs of our students. In addition to meeting with students individually and in small groups, the counselors deliver developmental guidance lessons to all students based upon standards and best practices.

My name is Heather Bastedo, and I am a High School Counselor at North Bay Haven Charter Academy. I grew up in northern Michigan and moved to Panama City Beach with my family in 2008. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Florida State University and my Masters of Education in School Counseling from Liberty University. Prior to becoming a school counselor, I spent nine years working for a national non-profit health organization as a community development director planning fundraising events and ensuring programs and services for patients.
I have a wonderful husband and together we have a daughter who graduated from NBH and currently attends the University of Florida. We are all so thrilled to be a part of the North Bay Haven family!
My name is Deborah Viera, and I am a High School Counselor at North Bay Haven. I have been a School Counselor with the Haven Inc. family since 2009. I remember the day I was notified that 2 of my children were accepted to attend Bay Haven through the lottery; we were all so excited! I knew immediately that I wanted to work at a Haven school and experience the High Expectations/High Achievements. I patiently waited a year for a position to open and the rest is history.
I was born and raised in Panama City. After graduating from Rutherford High School, I continued my education at Gulf Coast Community College, Florida State University, and earned a Master’s Degree in Counseling and Psychology from Troy State University.
I am married to my wonderful husband and have three beautiful children.
I am excited to be a Buccaneer and look forward to a great year!
