Welcome to my page! I am the School Counselor at Birchwood School.
As the school counselor, I am a resource for students, parents and staff. I am available for individual counseling (short-term limited intervention - not intensive therapy), which can be initiated by a student or requested by a parent or teacher. I am here to assist students with a wide range of concerns such as difficulty with schoolwork to difficulty relating to peers. If you are in need of outside referrals please click on the attached file.
During the year, I look forward to working with your children. I visit each classroom to provide character education lessons. I will also be facilitating lunch bunches for students. Groups like this often allow children to form bonds and try their newly learned skills in a safe setting.
Please feel free to contact me at any time!
