Lincoln Middle School

Hello! My name is Daniella Murillo and I am one of the School Psychologists at Lincoln. 

This is my 12th year as a School Psychologist and 10th year at LMS. I graduated from San Diego State University in 2005 with a Bachelor's in Psychology and received my masters in Education and School Psychology in 2007.

As far as my role at Lincoln, I collaborate with both school staff and families in developing plans that offer educational supports and/or services necessary for students to be successful in school. I also provide direct services to students in either individual or group settings.   

I am married and have two children, a girl who is 7, and a boy who is 2 years old.

We enjoy going to the beach, Disneyland, and outings for anything sweet! 

I have been blessed to be at Lincoln all of these years because it truly is the best place to be! 

I’ve enjoyed helping and working with children since I was a Day camp

counselor at age 14, and have continued from that point on. I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from UCSD, and then Masters Degree and Pupil Personnel Services and School Psychology Credentials from San Diego State University. I’ve been with OUSD for 28 years as a School Psychologist and am so happy to be working with this amazing staff and community at Lincoln.

I have 3 children of my own, ages 25, 21 and 17, and understand both the joys and challenges of parenthood, including raising a child with special needs. We also have 2 Goldendoodles and 5 cats, who definitely help keep life amusing. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, attending dance events for my youngest daughter and reading.
