Instructional Programs

I utilize the following sensory-cognitive programs from Lindamood-Bell in my practice:

  • Seeing Stars for reading and spelling instruction.
  • LiPS for developing phonemic awareness and reading skills.
  • Visualizing and Verbalizing to enhance reading comprehension.

Student Specializations

I provide support to students with a variety of learning profiles, including Dyslexia, hyperlexia, Autism Spectrum Disorders, auditory processing disorders, executive functioning challenges, non-verbal learning disabilities, working memory difficulties, and ADHD.

Additional Certification

I am also a certified practitioner of The Safe & Sound Protocol, which serves as an excellent complement to the academic programs I offer. More details about this protocol can be found at https://www.whatisthessp.com/.

Professional Background

I bring twenty-five years of experience working with neurodivergent children and adults. My background includes four years with Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes, where I served as a tutor and lesson plan developer in their Washington, DC and Berkeley, California clinics. For the past seven years, I have been operating a private practice.

Since October 2020, my practice has been conducted entirely via Zoom. It is important to note that while the Lindamood-Bell programs I employ are research-based and peer-reviewed, I am not formally affiliated with the Lindamood-Bell organization.

Payment and Scheduling

I accept private payment only. I am based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, which is in the Eastern Standard Time zone, and I currently work with students located across time zones from Pacific to Eastern.
