Every day as an Elementary School Counselor is EXCITING and DIFFERENT! I work closely with McGee teachers and administrators to provide counseling services that meet the unique needs of our students. Whether it be helping a student resolve a conflict with a friend, cope with a bad day, or deal with the loss of a beloved pet, I’m here to listen and support!
