Counseling Center

                                  Counselor: Elizabeth Adkins

  Welcome to J. R. Irvin Elementary! I am so excited and
  thankful to be starting my 25th year at the most amazing
  school in the entire world! As a school counselor, I do not
  do therapy but listen to students’ concerns and work with
  their teachers and families to help them succeed. When
  needed, I can also provide a list of outside resources.

Each month, I teach guidance lessons during the enrichment classes. As needs arise, I also see students individually and in small groups to discuss topics such as self-confidence, friendship, anxiety, grief, and family changes.

I look forward to getting to know each student and working with them to make their elementary years positive and successful. Please feel free to contact me anytime at (469) 856-6000 or by email at elizabeth.adkins@midlothianisd.org
