Services
I would be honored to join you on your journey.
Family Support: If there are certain things that you need a little extra support with in your day to day, I’m here to join you. Using your family values as a guide, we will work together to discover and develop practical, manageable, and natural changes you can make that will bring ease into your life.
Educational Collaboration: This is the unique opportunity to join parents, teachers, and other professionals in curiosity to explore behavior and learning in the educational setting. Together with school professionals, we can develop effective, strengths-based programs for individuals with complex learning and behavioral characteristics.
Advocacy: Navigating special education services can feel overwhelming. Wherever you may fall on the continuum of services, I am here to help. I would be honored to provide education to build your confidence in the IEP process and your role as parent, preparing you for meetings and helping you find your voice. My goal is to help you feel confident and empowered as you advocate for your child.
My goal is to walk alongside you on your journey—whether you're a parent, caregiver, or educator—offering guidance, tools, and compassionate partnership rooted in connection, curiosity, acceptance, and understanding.
