Kristen M. Breen

While I am originally from Chicago, I moved to Phoenix fourteen years ago from Philadelphia for an opportunity that allowed me to seek employment closer to family. After being an educator for the past two decades, I pursued a Master of Education in School Counseling at Grand Canyon University. 

I decided to transition from the classroom because school counselors have the opportunity to work with students on a more holistic level, addressing academic, emotional, and social issues. This broader scope allows counselors to impact students' lives in different ways beyond the educational focus of a classroom.
