Milagros “Millie” Chatelain joins the SFCS staff as a Youth Outreach Worker on the Middle School Level. Millie is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has dedicated her work to de-stigmatizing mental health for minority populations, including, but not limited to, people of color, women, and individuals that identify as LGBTQ+; and in offering a trauma informed and culturally sensitive approach to therapy.

Here, Millie developed her niche and honed her skills in the treatment of Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD). Millie has extensive training in both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). 

More recently, Millie worked for the Archdiocese of New York Drug Abuse Prevention Program where she provided clinical and preventative services to students in K-8 at two different schools.
