Jill Curry

My name is Jill Curry and I am the Guidance Counselor at Christ the King School. I work with students individually, in small groups, and also provide classroom lessons on topics such as social skills, conflict resolution, dealing with bullies, career awareness, and many others. I love working with young people and feel called by God to this work. I am grateful that God has always led me to work in places where I am free to share my faith and tell children about how God loves them. I received my Master’s degree in Psychology from New York University in 1994.

I have worked with youth in New York City, suburban Cleveland (where I am from originally), and Chicago. My life verse is Jeremiah 29:11: “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord, “Plans to prosper and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” I try to convey this truth in my work with young people, so they too can know that God has a plan and purpose for their lives, and there is great joy in discovering those as one grows. In addition to working with students, I also consult with teachers and meet with parents as needed or requested.
