Hello!

I am so excited to serve your student(s) this year in the school counseling department alongside Mrs. Duffy! This is going to be a great school year and I cannot wait to get to know your patriot!

A little about me- I am originally from Orange County, VA but my husband and I spent the last 15 years in Rockingham County where I completed my undergraduate and graduate degree at JMU. Gooooo Duuukkkkeeess! After receiving my masters in school counseling, I worked as a school counselor in the Rockingham County Public School District for 9 years. During that time, my husband and I also welcomed two sweet little girls into our lives and are so grateful everyday for our funny, sweet, beautiful, and spunky little ladies. Last summer, my husband and I made the decided to move to Louisa (where he is originally from) to be closer to both my family and his. Every single day I feel so thankful we made this decision! Being near family has been simply wonderful, we have already made so many memories, and LCPS is one of a kind! I am so honored to get to work for LCPS and I am thrilled that my girls will attend this school system. 

I am proud to be here and proud to serve both you and your student. I strongly believe in meeting a child where they are at developmentally when it comes to emotional awareness and self regulation by using a combination of both talk and play. I also have a passion for nature and its ability to positively impact mental health. Please feel free to contact me by email or phone if you would like to share any concerns, or make a check in request. I am looking forward to this exciting year ahead.

Take Care,

Mrs. Horne
