Welcome!
Advocate. Regulate. Motivate.
What is a school counselor?
I work alongside teachers and parents to provide students with a comprehensive program to reach their fullest potential. This includes helping to remove any barriers to academic, social / emotional, or career goals!
I PROVIDE...
Classroom lessons twice monthly focusing on academic skills, social and emotional learning, and career goals.
small group counseling on relevant topics
Short-term individual counseling
consultation with parents and teachers
community resource referrals as needed
school wide programming to provide Tier 1 Supports
Mission Statement:
As a school counselor, I will support our whole school community through a comprehensive program to successfully meet the academic, career, and social/emotional needs of all students.
Why?
I want to impact the lives of the students I work with to help them be successful in all aspects of their lives. I have seen students who struggle with learning because they are lacking the support they need or the skills needed to regulate themselves. I want to be the safe person who students can see as an ally when they feel alone, and make sure each student knows their worth and potential.
