  I work with families around the country and I stay involved with them every step of the way.  Throughout the placement process, I assume many roles. I serve as a researcher, an assessor, a guide, a therapist, an advocate, a watchdog, and a networked professional. 

Upon partnering with a family, my services are divided into three steps that will guide you safely through the entire process:

1. Assessment - gathering and integration of information regarding your child's needs (academic, social, and emotional).

2. Placement & Action - developing a placement plan, in collaboration with you, where I'll guide and coach you in choosing schools or programs that best fit your child's needs.  I also help with admissions procedures and logistical arrangements.

3. Monitoring - monitoring academic and/or therapeutic progress.

If you are currently in a crisis you should know that the placement process can occur in as little as one day if necessary.
