Welcome to Persell Counseling!  I am, along with John Sirianno, one of the School Counselors working with your child at Persell Middle School.   This is my second year at Persell; prior to that I worked as a Mental Health Therapist with Chautauqua County Mental Health.  

For the 2018-2019 school year, I will be working with students in grades 6 and 8.  I will continue to work with students individually, in small groups, in lunch groups and, at times, as a whole class.  The students and I will discuss social-emotional strategies and concepts that can be utilized in and out of the classroom setting.  

I aim to provide links to area resources and agencies that may be of assistance as well as posting important forms and documents that you may need.
