How can we help?
COmmunity Partners in Counseling
IDENTITY
Nonclinical Community Mental Health​
​
Culturally appropriate behavioral health supports – both non-clinical and clinical - are available to program participants.
Because of the prevalence of trauma among our client population, all non-clinical frontline staff are trained to recognize the signs and symptoms of trauma and are trained in non-clinical techniques to help young people and families manage the tremendous emotional impacts of trauma, including those related to immigration. ​
​
Encuentros - Identity’s Encuentros program provides non-clinical culturally and linguistically appropriate emotional support groups for middle school-age youth. Delivered by trained and trusted community co-facilitators with support from Identity staff, these multi-session groups offer a safe space for participants to engage in open discussion about mental and emotional health challenges and share strategies for managing them.

Meet the team of talented therapists who serve our students!
Kerry Hagerty, LMSW
​Hello and welcome! I'm Ms. Kerry, one of the school-based therapists at Kingsview, here to support the emotional, social, and mental well-being of our students. This is my second year at Kingsview, and I’m excited to be back! I’ve been a Social Worker for over two years, with experience in schools, mental health, the court system, and healthcare. I'm passionate about helping people process emotions and talk things through. My office is a safe, confidential space for students to share what’s on their mind like stress, anxiety, friendship or family challenges, or simply needing someone to listen. I also work closely with parents, teachers, and staff to support student growth and well-being. You're not alone; reaching out is a brave first step, and together we can build tools for resilience, connection, and healing. A few fun facts about me are that I have a sweet (and anxious) cat named Bailey. I’m Irish American. I love being on the water, sharing meals with loved ones, and listening to live music. Let’s make it a great year!
Camila Rodriguez, LMSW
​Hi, I’m Ms. Camila, or as some of you know me, just “Miss.” I have been a Social Worker for 3.5 years and have been doing therapy for a year. I am passionate about talking about emotions, working through problems, and, of course, a good cup of coffee. The 2025-2026 school year will be my second school year here at Kingsview. If you see me in the hall, feel free to say hi, or not, it’s always up to you! If I can, I will always say hi back. Some fun facts about me are that I have a dog named Zhen, but she is anything but. I am also Colombian, and speak English and Spanish! In my free time, I am usually hanging out with friends and family, or working on my passion project, photography! I am a photographer who loves capturing memories, love, and fun moments!
Isabella Wise, LMSW
​Ms. Isabella is a therapist who has worked with young people for over 12 years. She was born in El Salvador and moved to the United States when she was 11. Ms. Isabella loves working with middle schoolers and supporting them in reaching their goals and managing their emotions. She is passionate about helping youth feel confident, supported, and proud of who they are. She is also working hard to break the stigma around mental health, especially for youth. Ms. Isabella believes that talking about your feelings and asking for help is powerful. In her free time, she enjoys cooking, spending time with her family, and three dogs.
