Dyslexia and ADHD Educational Therapy
Academic Support - Teacher Resources - Parent and Educator Training
Anyone can benefit from educational therapy, but working with an educational therapist can be especially impactful for students with learning or behavioral needs including dyslexia, ADHD, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, anxiety around school, and Autism.
Academic support typically begins with a record review of current evaluations followed by a diagnostic assessment. This process helps me identify the biggest areas of need when it comes reading, writing, math, and executive functioning. From there I typically meet with students 1-2 times a week for 45 minutes- an hour. I create individual lessons based on each unique student. For students with dyslexia, I most often use the Orton-Gillingham approach. I also infuse executive functioning skills into many lessons- especially for students who have both ADHD and dyslexia. In this way we may work on reading, spelling, and math skills at the same time that we are working on attention, impulse control, organization, and planning.

I train parents and educators on how to proactively set up a successful environment for students with dyslexia, ADHD, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia. I provide guidance, modeling, and coaching on the specific approaches needed based on each student's cognitive profile. I also train parents and educators on how to respond to the behavioral needs associated with ADHD and executive functioning weaknesses.
