My name is Ms. Moriarty, more commonly known as Ms. Mo, and I am beginning my fifth year as a school counselor at NMS! I love seeing how much our students grow over the course of their three years in middle school. I also coach soccer and basketball at NMS as also have advised student clubs. Outside of school, I like to go to the beach, play softball, read books, and travel.
My name is Jillian Thacher. I am extremely excited to join the John T. Nichols Middle School Team as the new School Psychologist. I am committed in my practice to diversity, equity, inclusion, and cultural humility. I look forward to being an advocate for our youth. I grew up on the South Shore of Massachusetts, and I currently live in Onset, Massachusetts. In my free time I love traveling, running, and spending time with friends and family. I am looking forward to a great school year!
My name is Mrs. Goodell and I am happy to be back and look forward to working with and supporting students at Nichols this year. It is my second year as a counselor here and one of my favorite parts is seeing students at lunch! When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family, dog, and visiting new places.
My name is Madison Tyler, and I am a school counselor at NMS. I have a Bachelor's degree in psychology and sociology from Boston University, and a Masters in clinical social work from Boston College. Before coming to NMS, I worked at as a clinician at a residential school for students with autism and serious mental health conditions. My favorite parts about working at NMS are getting to support so many wonderful students and always learning new things from them.
