1 in 36 children are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (Maenner, 2023).

I provide parental coaching and consultation to navigate ASD/ADHD across schooling, family and daily life.

Not sure if your child has autism, please take the MCHAT screener below.

Translating interventions across settings

I am a Behaviorist (PhD, Applied Behavioral Analysis) who studied education and child development from cradle to college. I provide consulting in the following areas:

  • Navigating Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and ADHD interventions

  • Helping build a team of service providers, identify supplemental afterschool and summer programming to suit your child’s individual needs

  • Implementing interventions from the therapeutic setting into your home and daily life using specialized toys, books, and materials

  • Schooling - including navigating the high school to college transition, identifying colleges with robust support for students with ASD & ADHD

  • College readiness skills, accommodations

  • Diet/nutrition coaching to support brain health

  • Discuss developmental concerns and identify appropriate service providers for assessment and services even if your child does not have a diagnosis.

    Children require many opportunities to learn skills in their natural environment, including modeling to generalize the skill.

Accessing Education; the individualized pathways.

Schooling is a dynamic process requiring much planning and consideration as children grow and develop from kindergarten to college.

I work with parents to:

  • Develop family-centered goals

  • Identify school readiness skills

  • Understand the process of education from kindergarten to higher ed

  • Navigate the Individualized Family Services Plan (IFSP)

  • Navigate the Individualized Education Plan (IEP)

  • Navigate the Transition Planning for Higher Education (goodness of fit for college).
