I tailor assessments to address the specific concerns raised by parents / educators. Utilizing tools ranging from standardized measures to informal screeners, I evaluate:

• Phonological Awareness 
• Decoding
• Spelling
• Reading Comprehension
• Morphology
• Reading fluency
• Receptive / Expressive Language 
• Articulation (speech) 

Assessment results guide targeted intervention, and empower families and educators with actionable strategies to support the child’s language and learning. Importantly, results help the child understand their own learning profile which can improve self-advocacy and confidence.

I offer oral language and structured literacy intervention for school-aged children, whether they have a diagnosed learning disability, suspected learning disability, or simply need some targeted instruction to catch up. I am familiar with the scope and sequences of many commercial programs used by classroom teachers and tutors. My approach builds on what your child is already doing successfully, while targeting specific areas they are having difficulty with. My intervention is holistic, multi-sensory, individualized and aligned with the Science of Reading. 

Navigating your child's learning difficulties can be overwhelming. I have experience working with students with learning disabilities, ADHD, anxiety, developmental language delay, autism, global developmental delays, and twice-exceptional students. I'm familiar with local resources in the public and private sectors and will guide you towards appropriate resources and specialized services. Partner with me to develop and implement an actionable plan to support your child!

With a rich background in education, I deliver impactful presentations for educators. One of the most rewarding aspects of my work has been collaborating with educators. My sessions are designed to be engaging, informative, and practical, ensuring that educators leave with strategies they can implement immediately. 

Presentation topics include:

• The Science of Reading  
• Social emotional learning (SEL)
• Differentiated Instruction 
• Vocabulary instruction 
• Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)
• Developmental Language Disorder (DLD)
• Speech & language development
• Neurodiversity-affirming practices 
• Autism: Hyperlexia and reading comprehension 

My goal is to empower educators to create inclusive and effective learning environments for all students.
