As the counselor at Arcadia Elementary School, I will work with parents, teachers and students to maximize student success at school. I am available to provide the following services:

• Individual Counseling/Guidance – Meetings focus on student strengths and help to strengthen coping skills. Students can self refer or they can be referred by parents or teachers

• Classroom Guidance – All students receive classroom guidance lessons focusing on bully prevention, problem solving, friendship skills, etc.

• Group Counseling – Structured groups require parental permission and focus on a specific skill such as social skills, friendship, study skills etc.

• Consultation – Address strengths and concerns with parents and teachers and provide recommendations and referrals

I really look forward to working with you and your family.

Hope to talk with you soon!
