About Me
About Me
I have been with Wesclin School District since 2021, I currently work at Wesclin Middle School. Before coming to Wesclin, I worked in community based mental health and social work jobs providing support and therapeutic services to homeless, runaway, and at-risk youth, as well as, youth placed in a residential hospitalization setting. I have a Master's Degree from McKendree University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and I am trained in AF-CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and am trauma-informed. I enjoy working with adolescents and teens to help them navigate life and problems that may arise.
