A True Gem in College Counseling

Many assume that a college counselor’s role is limited to assisting during the senior year with applications. However, our experience with Amy was quite different. We were fortunate to involve Amy early in our daughter’s high school journey. Building a strong portfolio over four years to present our daughter in the best light to colleges isn’t something that can be accomplished just in the fall of senior year. Amy was an essential sounding board for course selections, volunteer activities, and summer job opportunities throughout high school. When it came to test preparation, she understood our daughters schedule and learning style so well that she could recommend the ideal programs for her.Our family relied on Amy most during the fall of our daughters senior year. Beyond assisting with essays and narrowing down school choiceswhich was straightforwardshe played a key role in keeping our family cohesive. Amy acted as a vital intermediary between us and our daughter, helping to ease the stress and anxiety that naturally come with the college application process. Think of her as a blend of a college advisor and a family psychologist. We were incredibly lucky to have her support and I highly recommend her. As evidence, our daughter is now halfway through her freshman year in college and couldnt be happierJoe D
