School Psychologist

I am excited and honored to be a part of the Anza community for another exciting year as a School Psychologist. I received my Master’s degree in School Counseling with an emphasis in School Psychology from Cal State Northridge. Since then, I have served at various schools in and out of state serving children from preschool to age 21. My goal is to build on a child’s strengths and provide the support needed for their educational success. When I am not at Anza, you will find me and my family exploring nature, being crafty, exercising/gym, or curled up completing a puzzle or enjoying a good movie.

Ms. Stephanie Kinsella

Speech

I am honored and privileged to have been a part of the Anza community for the past several years. I started my position as a Speech Pathologist here in 2003 and have watched our Anza community grow in so many amazing ways. I am a native New Yorker (Go Mets!) and earned my Bachelor’s degree back east at Iona College and earned my Master’s degree at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, Az. I have worked in several districts in the South Bay as a Los Angeles County Office of Education Speech Pathologist for many years, but no district compares with Wiseburn and the sense of community that it fosters. I am passionate about improving children’s communication skills and giving every child a voice. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, surfing, hiking, global travel, literature, music, learning a different language, and catching a great film.
