Hi!  I'm so beyond thankful for the opportunity to return to Wheeler!  I was a fifth grade teacher here for almost a decade.  I have been a school counselor for four years and I am so grateful that I am able to return home and work with our Wheeler family once again.  To learn more about me and gain access to a TON of social and emotional resources, please visit my Counseling Corner! You can find audio books, helpful articles, and mindfulness activities that you can use at home to support your family!
