What I do:
As an educational therapist specializing in writing, reading, and executive functioning, I work with students and professionals who want greater ease and confidence as they meet or exceed their educational goals. Our approach may include tutoring in specific subjects as well as academic and executive functioning coaching. My approach is individualized and developed with input from the student and family. When appropriate, I work with parents, teachers, and/or counselors to better support the student.
I welcome reluctant students with humor and appreciation.
I also offer workshops for teachers, tutors, and mentors who want to understand how neurodiverse students learn best and the intersection of learning and executive functioning. I teach occasional workshops for youth or adults on special topics as well.
Why I do it:
I am in awe of the beauty and power of the human mind to learn and create quality and high-quality work.
When there is a learning or executive functioning struggle (large or small), I’m honored to work with a student as we discover the best tools and strategies to unleash their potential.
Some subjects are profoundly difficult for some students. In these cases, I believe in compassionate tenacity. We will find a way.
I believe that strengthening or restoring academic confidence and a sense of joy in learning is critical to reaching educational, professional, or personal goals.
