School Counselor

Welcome to Ms. Cocca's School Counselor website for Bache-Martin Elementary School. I hope that you find this website helpful and supportive as we begin the 2019-2020 academic year! As your School Counselor, I hope to enable all students to reach

their educational, occupational, and social competencies and potential. I want to create a safe and welcoming space for students, families, and the school community. I work comprehensively and collaboratively to address and alleviate barriers to student success.
I believe and commit to displaying the following beliefs:

• All students and families have dignity, worth, and an ever-growing amount of potential

• All students and families have the right to access the School Counselor and supportive services

About Ms Cocca

Hello and welcome! My name is Ashley

Cocca, and I am the School Counselor for

Bache-Martin Elementary. This is my fifth

year working with the Bache-Martin family!
I have a varied background in education,

school counseling and the mental health

field and I am dedicated to bring this

experience and knowledge to my position at

Bache-Martin, each and every day. 
 

A little background - I graduated from the GSE at the University of Pennsylvania with a dual Master's degree in Education and Professional Counseling. I served as a School Counselor in the School District of Philadelphia for 3 years and then decided to enter the mental health field, exclusively, in order to further develop my clinical skills. During that time, I worked as a clinician in Out Patient Therapy, Mobile Therapy, Student Therapeutic Services and Drug & Alcohol Group Therapy. 

​

I look forward to sharing with, as well as learning from, all of you!
