My name is Mrs. Sofia Seliger. You can call me Mrs. S =) I am the 7-12th grade school counselor at South O'Brien Junior High and High School here in Paullina, Iowa. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, a Master's Degree in Counseling, and a Mental Health Counseling degree, all from the University of Northern Iowa. UNI FIGHT! My husband, Jason, and I have two children, Quinn (5) and Keira, or Keke (4). We are a busy family of 4 who love to play outside, read lots of books, and enjoy any & all things Disney!
This is my 3rd year at SO'. South O'Brien is a great place to work and learn! As a professional school counselor, it is my job to advocate for students and families for their needs. It's my job to help students work through struggles & challenges, develop strategies to cope with problems, plan their future successes, explore postsecondary options and opprotunities and so much more! Teachers and school staff are some the best people and I enjoy collaborating with and learning from them as much as students. As a school counselor, I believe a school exists for the purpose of nurturing and fostering skills such as resilience, 21st century , and empathy for youth. These are skills everyone has, sometimes we just need a little practice & support. The goal is to assist young people in developing and fostering skills and tools to become able, success, caring adults within our community.

Make the most of today. Go Wolverines!
Best, Mrs. S
