God has given us a purpose, a vision, and a mission! As someone who has experienced adversities, I have used my own experiences to empower, and strengthen others. I will admit I do not know everything. I say this because you know your story better than I. If you allow me access to know your story, we can grow together. I acknowledge that trust is an important part in any relationship to develop so do not trust me until I have earned it. My hope is that through partnership, engagement, patience, love, understanding, respect, kindness, and teamwork we can work towards healing and self-empowerment. "Please Email if you see Waitlist" !

Does your child struggle with learning? Do you think your child needs educational accommodations or supports? Evaluating children and adolescents, I work to develop a comfortable atmosphere where your children can be themselves and strive to do their best when completing testing.

I want to know more than just whether their answers are right or wrong, but how they went about reaching them. This helps me provide useful recommendations to help foster your child's overall development.
