About Phoenix

Hi! I'm a licensed elementary school counselor with 15 years of experience working with children and families. As a recent empty nester, I have a renewed sense of purpose and joy in offering care and guidance to children of all ages. My passion is to help kids feel seen, safe, and confident. I love supporting families in building stronger connections. I bring a calm, nurturing presence along with professional insight into child development, behavior, and emotional wellness. Outside of work, I enjoy baking, arts and crafts, reading, and writing - I'm currently working on a children's picture book series! I also love being outdoors, whether I'm walking the Chain of Lakes, going to music events, or soaking up the sunshine. I value healthy living, movement, and a positive mindset, and I aim to bring that energy into every caregiving experience.
