RCES has an on site counselor through the Helen Ross McNabb Center. Information about our counselor is listed below.
I am Destaney Martin, and I am a School-Based Behavioral Health Liaison with Helen Ross McNabb. My role at the school is to provide various levels of support to both students and staff. Some of the different ways I can offer support are through individual or family therapy, group education, and teacher trainings.
For just a little bit about me, I graduated from the University of Kentucky in 2023 with my Master of Social Work. I previously worked in the mental/behavioral health field for 3 years before starting with McNabb. When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family and crocheting.
I am excited for the opportunity to be at Rogers Creek and work alongside everyone!
