Does your child get frustrated easily with homework? Guess frequently at words? Have poor handwriting? Read slowly or inaccurately? Lack self-esteem? Dislike reading? I can help! It is my mission to help children reach their full potential by minimizing the impact of academic challenges on mental health and overall well-being. I value early identification of learning challenges and providing intervention when it matters the most - the early years. My customized services meet children where they are so they can build the confidence they need and deserve to succeed in the classroom and beyond.
I am an educational therapist who specializes in literacy and treating dyslexia and other coexisting challenges such as ADHD, low self-esteem, and executive function weaknesses. I provides in-person therapies in Paoli and online. I offer individual intervention & coaching services, screenings & comprehensive evaluation, and parent consultation.
Dyslexia is a language-based learning disorder and is not due to either lack of intelligence or desire to learn; with appropriate teaching methods, students with dyslexia can learn to read and write successfully. ​Reach out to learn more about dyslexia and the treatment options offered through A First Foundation, LLC.

I use an Orton-Gillingham, Structured-Literacy Approach to learning to read, spell, and write that supports struggling readers, children at-risk for disabilities, or those diagnosed with dyslexia. In your first session, a diagnostic assessment helps determine the intervention goals, and progress monitoring adjusts treatment as necessary.
