Ellena Grskovic is excited to join the South Boston Catholic Academy community as a guidance counselor. She received her Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and Psychology from Roger Williams University and her Master’s in Social Work from Simmons University. Ellena has spent the past decade working with children, adolescents and young adults in various clinical and educational settings, including in-home therapy, community health centers, school-based and private practice. She is so excited to be joining a school community again, as she believes in the importance of a collaborative and wraparound approach to support and empower children to reach their full potential socially, emotionally and intellectually. Ellena currently lives in Boston with her husband, almost 3 year old daughter and her dog, Argos. She enjoys reading, picnics, traveling, going to the beach and skiing.
