504 Plan/Special Education (IEP):

Having your child go through the 504 or CSE (Committee on Special Education) process can be very daunting and many parents don’t know where to begin.  You might be asking yourself, Who do I contact at school if I have concerns? What is an IEP and how does it differ from a 504?  How do I know if my child qualifies, and if they do, what services are they entitled to?  The questions could go on and on. As a professional who works closely with these procedures, I can help you to navigate this process so that you feel confident in assisting your child and so that you know what to expect when meeting with the school.

Session Structure Options

In addition to meeting in-person and virtually, I’m excited to offer a cost effective message based option!

How the Message Based Option Works:

  1. We’ll schedule an initial 30-minute session via phone, zoom or in-person.  This is when we’ll discuss your goals for our work together.

  2.  After our initial meeting, you’ll have access to message me 24/7, so you don’t have to wait to share what’s on your mind. You can send text messages anytime something comes up — whether you’re commuting, at the office, or in bed. You can expect to hear back from me within one day, but most times it will be much sooner. In addition, you have the option of using audio and video messaging which are great for responses or discussions that require greater depth, or if you simply feel like going hands-free.

 Benefits:

  • Cost-effective

  • Eliminate commute time and scheduling hassles.

  • We’re always connected so you don’t have to wait to get something off your mind, allowing you to share real-time experiences and receive guidance during challenging moments.

  • You have flexibility to communicate, so you can express your thoughts and feelings at your own pace.

  • Writing out what’s bothering you can give you time to reflect and make sure you’re getting your point across.

  • The written format offers a sense of anonymity, which empowers you to discuss sensitive topics without fear of judgment or stigma and encourages open and honest communication.

  • The messaging app used is secure, encrypted and can be password protected to ensure your privacy.
