Hello Piqua Catholic!
My name is Amanda Mascarenhas, and I am your new University of Dayton ECHO Counselor!
I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and have spent most of my career working with children in various settings. I attended Catholic Elementary and High School, and received my Master's Degree from the University of Dayton. I have 4 children who attend Catholic School as well!
I will be in the building most Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8-2:15. I am there to listen when your student is having a rough day, and I will also be providing individual counseling, group counseling and some classroom curriculums!
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have something going on at home or your child is having a rough day, or if your student could benefit from counseling. My services are free to the students here at Piqua Catholic!
I am excited to be part of such a positive, faith filled environment!
