Meet your Joshua Jets Counselor!
Please note that confidentiality cannot be guaranteed via phone conferences. I, as the school counselor will make every effort to ensure a confidential conversation. As always, appropriate persons will be notified if any of the following come up in our conversation:
Someone is hurting you
You want to hurt someone
You want to hurt yourself
As counselor, I am a mandated reporter.
The safety of everyone is important to me.
