Consulting/Tutoring
When a family first contacts me, they invariably say, “I’ve tried so many different curriculums, but nothing works.” I reply, “You’re right; because the curriculum isn’t the problem...the brain is.” Why is the brain the problem? He/s is an intelligent kid.
Children/young adults struggle developmentally &/or academically because, for whatever reason, missing developmental stages, incomplete, or halted earlier in life (or in utero), causing dysfunction in all levels above it.
During development in utero and early infancy, the central nervous system lays the foundation for future learning, focus, and behavior. For whatever reason(s), for example, genetics, drugs, alcohol, moms’ illness, abuse, and neglect were missed, skipped, or halted. All the levels above are built on shaky ground, causing struggles. I like to say struggles rather than disability…ALL kids CAN learn…just differently! The GOOD NEWS is that, in most cases, these struggles can be eliminated or significantly improved with specific therapeutic stimulation.
Eliminate it? YES! Learning disabilities/struggles can be eliminated. But only when the root causes are identified and eliminated!
I offer brain-based training for children and adults with special needs or learning/focusing difficulties.
HOW you ask...
A functional evaluation of your child’s sensory system, visual and auditory processing, emotional communication, short-term working memory, and motor areas of fine & gross motor skills will occur. We will also evaluate their language, social behavior, and academic achievement and present all the findings as a developmental profile.
It does not end there...
Upon finalizing our evaluation, we provide you with the results and THEN develop a customized INEP (individualized neurodevelopment-education plan)
TWO options--
1. We can teach YOU, the family, to implement it in-home entirely. There are bi-weekly phone calls/emails to check progress & answer any questions/concerns you may have. Twice a year, re-evaluations are needed to assess your child’s neurodevelopment progress and modify their program.
OR
2. Via Zoom, I will oversee your child completing the individualized program three (3) days a week, two (2) sessions. A re-evaluation with program adjustments will be done.
