Counseling Philosophy Statement
About:
My role as a school counselor is to provide a comprehensive, developmental counseling program that address the academic, social, and emotional needs of all students. In partnership with our stakeholders, I will facilitate and coordinate a multi-tiered support system to ensure that all students are prepared and have access to the knowledge and skills necessary to become globally competitive, lifelong learners and responsible citizens of the community.
I attended Ohio Valley University where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Wellness Education. I have also earned a Master' degree in school counseling from the University of Dayton.

The relationship between students and counselors is built on trust and is the most important aspect for successful counseling. We will get to know each other as we develop a relationship; we will discuss and work on any difficulties or issues you would like to be addressed, and we will work together to achieve success in school and for the future.
Confidentiality:

In those cases, confidentiality will be broken in an effort to help the student.
Services Provided

This program would include classroom guidance lessons as prevention. Lessons are based on the Ohio Department of Education
