Counselor
Welcome to the Counselor's Corner
It is my goal to assist students in recognizing their strengths,
abilities, talents and to encourage them to display a positive
attitude that will lead to successful careers. At AW James
Elementary, students have the right to request to be seen or they
can be recommended by their teachers or parents. As counselor, I am
available to provide resources for those who may be in need of
short or long term counseling. I provide both group and individual
support as it relates to school issues or concerns. I am committed
to working with parents, staff and vendors to help create a safe
environment for our children and all who support them.
During the past 25 years, I have worked with individuals and
families in a variety of settings which include prisons, mental
health, public library, and public school counseling. A significant
part of my work is the process of living free from the burden of
addictions and all that it entails. I have also worked with the
juvenile and adult justice system in the State of Mississippi. My
job was to help individuals and their families while they navigate
through the many aspects of our jail and prison system.
My passion is to help people learn and grow together as we enjoy
and serve our respective communities. I am married to a local
artist who is retired from the Mississippi Department of
Corrections. My husband and I enjoy sharing life with our adults
sons, family, friends and all individuals who life allows us to
encounter.
REMEMBER: Your NEED is my JOB
