Our beloved Brain Lady is leaving Aumsville

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students,
I am writing to share an important update regarding counseling services at Aumsville Elementary.
Over the coming months, I will be transitioning to a different professional role and will gradually be phasing out of providing therapy and prevention services within the school setting. This has been a thoughtful and carefully considered decision, and I wanted to ensure families are informed as early as possible.
Working with the students, families, and staff at Aumsville Elementary has been incredibly meaningful to me. I have deeply valued being part of this school community and supporting students over the past nine years. It has truly been a privilege to walk alongside so many children and families during their growth and development.
Please know that my priority during this transition is to support students and families in a thoughtful and smooth way. At this time, I will no longer be accepting new school-based counseling clients, and a waitlist is in place. Moving forward, Chelsie will be the primary point of contact for any questions or concerns related to school-based counseling services.
Families who wish to continue working with me outside of the school setting are welcome to contact me directly for information regarding my new employment. I am also hopeful to complete the remaining brain trainings for grade levels not yet served, as this is an area I am very passionate about and committed to.
Thank you for the trust, collaboration, and support you have shown me over the years. I am deeply grateful for the relationships built with students and families, and I will always hold this school community close to my heart.
Warmly,
Tracy Warnock, MA, QMHP, LMFT
