Mission

College Street Counseling provides guidance for all aspects of the college admissions process: college search, high school issues, testing, applications, and financial aid. The CSC philosophy is in close alignment with the principles articulated by The Education Conservancy.  I believe that my background in psychology and education has provided an excellent foundation for the work that I do.

Services

My practice is designed to be flexible.  Each student is different, and my menu of service options reflects this reality.  I offer four basic levels of service:

Introductory Package	Who -- Juniors and their families Sign Up -- By Jan 1 Starts:  After Winter Break junior year
Quick-Start Meeting	Who -- Juniors and their families Starts:  After Winter Break junior year
Hourly Counseling & Evaluation	Who -- Juniors and seniors and their families Starts:  After Winter Break junior year
Early Bird Meeting	Who -- Sophomores and their families When -- Sophomore year

Location

My office is in my house in South Seattle, and I meet with students and their families in my living room, which provides a warm and homey setting for our discussions.

Availability

I am available for meetings with students Monday through Thursday afternoons and evenings, Friday afternoon, and Sunday afternoon and evening.  I am in Maine every summer from mid- to late July until early September, but I answer questions and review materials via e-mail just as I would if I were home.  Click for more availability information.

Results 

Since 2000, I have helped students launch hundreds of successful applications. I really enjoy this age group, and every year I am thrilled to watch them choose colleges that are a good match.
