MEET THE CANDIDATES

PRESIDENT-ELECT

MONICA DOMINGUEZ

SOCCORO ISD

I want to serve on the LSSSCA Governing Board because I am deeply committed to advancing the school counseling profession and supporting counselors across Texas. Throughout my career, I have seen how strong, comprehensive counseling programs transform student outcomes, and I believe LSSSCA plays a vital role in empowering counselors to deliver that level of impact. Having served on the board for ten years, I would continue to contribute my experience, passion, and collaborative leadership to an organization whose mission aligns closely with my own values.

My leadership is grounded in advocacy, equity, and elevating the voices of school counselors. Through my work with LSSSCA committees, I have seen the importance of professional recognition, meaningful training, and statewide support systems. As President -Elect, I would work to strengthen these efforts and help ensure that every counselor feels equipped and valued. I am committed to supporting LSSSCA’s mission and advancing its vision for all Texas students.

DIRECTOR OF SECONDARY

LINDSAY FULLER

ALEDO ISD

I am seeking the position of Director of Secondary because I believe secondary school counselors deserve strong, informed representation that reflects the realities of our work in both middle and high school settings.

In my current role, I lead my high school counseling team while also leading and supporting elementary and middle school counselors across my district as the Aledo ISD District Lead Counselor. This dual perspective has given me a clear understanding of the shared challenges secondary counselors face—large caseloads, evolving state mandates, increasing mental health needs, and growing expectations around College, Career, and Military Readiness—along with the unique differences between elementary, middle and high school counseling work.

I am passionate about creating spaces where secondary counselors feel connected, heard, and professionally supported. If elected, I would prioritize meaningful engagement through virtual learning opportunities, practical resource-sharing, and collaborative discussions focused on real-world application. I am especially committed to supporting counselors through high-quality lesson development, policy-aligned guidance, and professional learning that respects counselors’ time and workload.

Serving on the LSSSCA Board would allow me to advocate for secondary counselors at a broader level while contributing to the organization’s strategic goals. I am eager to collaborate with fellow board members, represent LSSSCA with integrity, and help ensure secondary counselors across Texas feel empowered, prepared, and valued in their work.

DIRECTOR OF LEADERSHIP & TRAINING

JESSICA COFIELD

LITTLE ELM ISD

As a Director for Counseling Services at Little Elm ISD and a Licensed Professional Counselor-S, I am eager to serve on the LSSSCA Governing Board to bridge the gap between district-level vision and counselor empowerment. With a decade of LSSSCA success behind us, I am passionate about ensuring our organization remains the premier advocate for school counseling excellence in Texas.

 I aim to support the LSSSCA mission by designing intentional leadership pipelines—identifying and mentoring future ambassadors to ensure our governance is as diverse and dynamic as the students we serve! By implementing feedback-driven training sessions and fostering networking opportunities across both virtual and in-person platforms, this will ensure our professional development is not only high-quality but directly responsive to member needs.

I am committed to promoting leadership opportunities that encourage active involvement in our decision-making processes. I look forward to collaborating with the Board to enhance our organizational capacity,  as we celebrate our 10-year anniversary, we are building a sustainable foundation for the next decade of transformative leadership.
