Amy Noall
Psychologist, LEP, NCSP, MS
Is your child struggling with reading, writing or math? I diagnose DYSLEXIA, DYSGRAPHIA and DYSCALCULIA. I provide screenings and full evaluations. Screenings are more affordable and provide much needed data about your child's learning style and needs. Screenings usually take one testing session and a consultation afterwards to review the results. Full evaluations take several sessions and provide a thorough, detailed report. I also consult and advocate with parents and students on the IEP process/504 plans. Check out our website to learn more of the TUTORING, TESTING, and THERAPIES that we offer: www.thescholarsgrove.com

Hi, I’m Heather Splain, and I'm living my best life in California with my therapy pup, Avé. She is my sidekick who comes to work with me every day to help with Animal Assisted Therapy. I’ve experienced a winding journey getting to where I am today. I started my career initially as an Elementary School Teacher, transitioned to a School Counselor and finally hung my hat on being Marriage and Family therapist. I’ve worked with clients aging from three years old, all the way past retirement age! I am a curious person by nature and love learning someone else’s story.

It takes so much courage to ask for help. In my twenty plus years as a therapist I have been humbled time and again as clients make that call and come in for sessions. People come in to talk about some of the most difficult things, from childhood abuse to a struggling marriage. It has been a privilege to be of service to so many people. I often get asked how I can listen to peoples stories of hurt and pain and I answer that it is difficult but so hopeful. That is because people don’t have to stay in that place of emotional, psychological, spiritual, or relational pain.

When something is amiss, we experience distress; this can look like depression, anxiety, stress, or even numbness. This might make us question, “Who am I in my relationships with others?”, “Who am I now that this relationship is gone?”, "Who am I in larger society?" or maybe it’s partners or families thinking, “Who are we in these relationships together?” If you find yourself interested in exploring similar questions, read on.
