Meet the Counselor & Psychologist

Joe Walker Counseling Program – 2025

Hello Joe Walker Students & Families,

At Joe Walker, we believe that all students are capable of success in their own unique way. With the right tools and supports, every student can achieve and grow. These tools come from a partnership between families, teachers, counselors, psychologists, and all the other positive influences in a student’s life.

We recognize that students—especially those in underserved and underrepresented communities—need encouragement, motivation, and empowerment to thrive. As counselors and student support staff, we are dedicated to closing opportunity gaps and ensuring that every student has access to the supports they need. We believe in equity, and we believe in the limitless potential of our students.
