Meet the 2020/2021 Selkirk Elementary School Counsellors:
Hello Selkirk Coyote Families,
We hope this letter finds you well. Although these last few months were different, we are excited for a new school year. As the 2020/2021 school counselling team, we wanted to introduce ourselves and highlight Selkirk’s counselling program.

I am grateful to be returning as Selkirk’s fulltime school counsellor. Over the summer, my family and I explored Yukon’s beautiful campgrounds and trails; thankfully, the wildlife we encountered remained at least one caribou length away! I am passionate about trauma-informed education, and I am working toward certification in the Neurosequential Model in education. I am looking forward to reconnecting with returning Selkirk families, and to meeting new Coyotes.

Hello Selkirk! I am one of the school counsellors and I am looking forward to getting to meet all the students, staff and families at Selkirk. I have taught in Asia, Ontario, B.C and the Yukon. I have really enjoyed living in different communities and learning alongside students, staff and families. I am sure my learning will continue as I work with Selkirk students, staff and families throughout this year. When not at School, I can be found chasing my two and five year olds around the woods!

We are also available to work with individual children and groups of children who need extra support to ensure a successful school day by providing teaching of:
-Social skills -Emotional awareness
-Decision-making -Health & wellness
-Self-regulation
