My name is Brittany Koukol and I am Claxton’s School Counselor. This is my first year as your school counselor although I have spent the last 3 years as Claxton’s school-based therapist so I am not entirely new to our hive. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Registered Art Therapist. I have training as an art and sand tray therapist and love to use experiential activities to engage students in social and emotional learning. I am so excited to be your school counselor and I am looking forward to getting to know everyone over the next year.

I was born and raised in Tacoma, Washington and have lived in Asheville for almost 4 years. My husband and I have two adorable and mischievous dogs which we love very much. I enjoy the outdoors, yoga, and making any and all types of art!
