Who We Are

School psychologists are uniquely qualified members of school teams that support students' abilities to learn and teachers' abilities to teach. Leveraging their expertise in mental health, learning, behavior, and data analysis, school psychologists consult with teachers, families, and other school staff; provide direct support and interventions to students; and collaborate with school teams to coordinate needed services. 

​​​​​​​

What We Do

  • Consultation & Collaboration

School psychologists partner closely with teachers, school staff, and families to ensure a coordinated, whole-child approach to addressing student needs. 

  • Assessment & Evaluation

School psychologists utilize comprehensive assessments to gain insights into student's strengths, challenges, and unique learning profile. This allows us to provide individualized recommendations to unlock each student's full potential. 

  • Intervention & Support

School psychologists collaborate to develop intervention plans, provide counseling for social-emotional needs, and implement evidence-based interventions to empower students to achieve their goals. 

  • Advocacy

School psychologists amplify the voices of students and champion policies that foster inclusive, responsive practices to ensure every student can thrive.

 

How to Contact a School Psychologist

Every school has access to the services of a school psychologist. Our school psychologists serve two or more schools, so they may not be at a particular school every day. Most often, school psychologists can be reached by inquiring directly at the school. To find your school psychologist, please see the list below.
