"Being a college counselor allows me to guide and coach students to make well formed decisions as they consider their future path. Working one on one with a student allows time to explore their interests, abilities, achievements and challenges."


Joy Flaherty, College Counselor
Joy is an option for students who are not working with a College Counselor and need extra support.
Joy began to work with young adults and their families in 2001 after receiving her Masters in Social Work from Loyola University. It was during those early years that Joy’s passion for helping young people discover their potential really began to flourish. This inspired her to acquire her Coaching certification and to become a Certified College Counselor through UCLA as well.
Developing people so they can fulfill their desire to attain the right academic environment to thrive in continues inspire Joy everyday.
