  • Parenting Consultation

    Parent consultation is a specialized form of support designed to help parents improve their parenting skills. Parents of all types of children may find they may need assistance, however the need increases when a neurodiverse child is part of the equation. Children diagnosed with ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder or learning disabilities often fall under the neurodiversity umbrella. This type of consultation/coaching is different from psychotherapy as there is no diagnosis made. During these sessions, parents can discuss their concerns, seek advice and receive personalized guidance tailored to their unique circumstances.

  • School Consultation

    As a previous school counselor and teacher, working with schools is my passion. Not all schools have a network of professionals available to help when situations become more than expected or more than the faculty is equipped to manage. Consulting with schools can take on a variety of forms such as support when navigating a student experiencing school refusal, support navigating challenging situations with students and families, help planning for meeting individual needs for a student or being on-call to a school during a crisis situation. Each case is unique. If your preschool, elementary, middle or high school is interested in exploring consultation, please complete the form under “Get Started” and indicate your interest in consultation.
