Consulting Services

Assistance for families searching for community resources, navigating the educational system, and coping emotionally with raising a neurologically different child.

As parents of children with special needs, we have to be incredibly resourceful.  We face all the normal challenges of parenting, compounded by an onslaught of additional obstacles.  Whether you are first hearing that your child has autism, ADHD, dyslexia, or other neurological challenges, or you had been advised years ago, you may be trying to navigate the confusing maze of information.   It is through my educational background and having traversed the special needs community myself, that I can help you find solutions and information you may not have discovered on your own.  I will refer you to professionals for your specific needs, assist in the management of your child’s case and help you with the psychological and emotional toll of parenting a special needs child.
