My name is Fran and I have a Bachelors in Counseling Psychology and have been working with students and families for over 25 years. I have dedicated my life to helping students and families across Sacramento County and Placer County find resources to help better their lives and become self-sufficient. I am currently working for RJUHSD and love working with the wonderful staff, our amazing students, awesome parents, and abundant community who has embraced our families. I grew up near the beaches in San Francisco but moved to Sacramento to finish my high school at Hiram Johnson High School and I did my bachelors at William Jessup University in Rocklin California. I have alway loved working with students from babies to teens and I have always felt like I am right where I was meant to be helping people on their journey in life. When I am not working I am enjoying my own big crazy family or hiking, biking or kayaking and enjoying nature.

Why Wellness?
Wellness Centers on high school campuses are a powerful investment in the health and academic potential of students. They provide increased early interventions for students experiencing emotional problems that may be impacting their ability to access their learning. Wellness programs have a proven ability to reconnect students back to learning when health and social-emotional barriers are present.
