​
I am excited to be a part of the Selkirk community. I have lived in Whitehorse for the last 5 years, and have enjoyed every second of it! Prior to living in Whitehorse, I was teaching in the middle east, and had the opportunity to visit many different countries. Recently, I finished my masters of education with a focus in trauma-informed education. I am looking forward to my role as one of Selkirk’s school counsellors.

​
​I am happy to be returning to Selkirk after a half-year absence, during which time I had the opportunity to home-school my children, travel, and visit with extended family. I have been working as a school counsellor at Selkirk for most of the past 16 years and look forward to re-connecting with those of you who know me and meeting newer members of our community. 


​

School counsellors are available to work with individual children, classroom teachers, and caregivers desiring extra support for their children in a variety of areas including:
 
Social skills   
Emotional awareness 
Decision-making 
Health and wellness 
Career exploration and transitioning 
Academic planning 
Self-regulation 

 
If you would like to access our services, please feel free to call the school at 667-3688, contact your child’s classroom teacher, or send us an email.
 
Sincerely, 
Laura Orviss and Nicole Schroeder
