ABOUT ME

My name is Jana Timmons.  I am the School Counselor at Sunset Elementary.  I have been an Elementary School Counselor since 2011.  I earned a Counseling Psychology degree from Brigham Young University with a Minor in Family Science, and a Masters of Educational Psychology from the University of Utah.  

I have been married for 34 years and I have five children -- four sons, one daughter, and a daughter-in-law. We love spending time together as a family-- hiking, fishing, playing games, traveling and having new adventures.

I love being a School Counselor and helping kids!  

a counselor's role

An Elementary School Counselor performs the vital role of setting the tone for developing the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary for children to become healthy, competent, and confident learners. Through a comprehensive developmental School Counseling Program, Counselors work as a team with parents, school staff, and the community to create a caring climate and atmosphere. By providing education, prevention, early identification and intervention, School Counselors can help all children to achieve academic success and reach their full potential.
