Katerina Pogosov, LMFT

Wellness Coordinator

Hello! My name is Mrs. Katerina and I am the Wellness Coordinator here at Peterson Middle School. I am someone that students can talk to confidentially about all the difficult things going on in life. I can help with coming up with ideas for tough situations, support you through those situations, get you linked up to therapy, get you info on various mental health topics, teach coping skills, or just listen to you without judgement.

For parents and families, I can help you with understanding your teen better, getting your family linked up with a therapist, supporting you through tough parenting situations, and getting you mental health info & resources.

Random fact: I learned English and Greek at the same time as a toddler and spoke a mix of both until I started elementary school.
