About the store
Hey y’all! Thanks so much for stopping by. My name is Laura and I am an Elementary School Counselor turned Curriculum Writer. This is my 15th year in the field of school counseling. At my precious school in Nashville, TN, 97% of my students were living in poverty and 80% of them spoke a language other than English at home. I am bilingual and loved using my Spanish skills on a daily basis with my students and their families. It was one of the greatest joys of my life to work with this population who taught me each and every day why school counseling, SEL, and mental health MATTER.

Experience

Hey y’all! Thanks so much for stopping by. My name is Laura and I am an Elementary School Counselor turned Curriculum Writer. This is my 15th year in the field of school counseling. At my precious school in Nashville, TN, 97% of my students were living in poverty and 80% of them spoke a language other than English at home.

Teaching style

I believe that every child can learn and it is the school counselor’s role to provide the support, love, and advocacy that students need to reach their highest potential. By teaching our students coping skills and putting preventative and responsive measures in place, the sky is the limit for our kiddos! All of my products are used with my students first to be sure they are accessible to all learners, engaging, meaningful, and FUN!
