My Story

Everyone has a story. And hopes and dreams. I relate to strugglers and stragglers, academic underdogs whose learning life is a challenge. I connect, in part, because of my personal labels and early experiences. Kids with labels struggle to understand and process the information they garner about their lives and their hopes and dreams. Sometimes, school is a burden imposed on their time; sometimes a task master, sometimes a competition. Actually, it's none of those; but can seem that way because of the way it's structured.

As an accomplished educational therapist, learning specialist and academic coach, I am perfectly suited to assisting with those academic struggles. From seventh graders to resident physicians, I have worked with hundreds of clients. Their ADHD, anxiety, depression or low self-esteem conspire to interrupt their education, their work flow or their lives in general.

I listen carefully to the stories clients tell. And with decades of training and experience, I am able to understand the nexus of those stories with the day-to-day demands of a nuroatypical life. My work focuses on creating collaborations to improve performance. We implement strategies that address executive dysfunction, manage emotions and improve planning. Doable, actionable homeworks that are relevant to your goals build executive function skills, study techniques and strategies that will last you a lifetime.
