Hello My Name Is...
Danielle Phelps
Hello! My name is Danielle Phelps and I am the 6th grade School Counselor at Northumberland Middle School. I am a first year School Counselor who recently graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University with a Masters in Education. I received my Bachelors in Psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2013. I am currently commuting from Chesterfield County, where I live with my husband and our dog Winston. I am a member of the Virginia School Counselor Association, American School Counselor Association, and the international counseling honors society Chi Sigma Iota.
At Northumberland Middle, the school counseling office provides many services, including individual counseling, group counseling, and classroom guidance lessons. We strive to meet all students academic, social/emotional, and college/career related needs. My mission as a school counselor is to advocate for equity and access in education for every student so they will have the best opportunities presented to them for their future. I strive to ensure each student has a supportive relationship within the school that will allow them to reach their greatest potential and grow into a lifelong learner.
I look forward to having a great year at NMS!
