Educational Consulting

At Inclusive Minds Counseling, I understand that when your child has a disability, the school system can quickly become overwhelming. Between assessments, phone calls from teachers and administrators, formal 504 plans or IEP meetings, it’s easy to feel lost, frustrated, or even dismissed. Therapy provides a space not only to process the emotional weight of advocating for your child but also to receive clear, informed and expert guidance on how to navigate the system with more confidence and clarity.

As both a veteran educator and seasoned therapist, I consider it a privilege to be part of your support team. My unique background and experience enables me to offer both therapeutic support to process the related emotions, but also expert consulting so you feel empowered to make informed decisions on behalf of your child. That means we’ll work together to review school documents or assessments, break down confusing language, and explore what’s working—and what’s not—for your child. I provide personalized feedback and recommendations for you to take back to your school team, helping you ask the right questions and make informed decisions during meetings and throughout the process. You don’t have to become an expert overnight—I’m here to help you understand each step and advocate effectively.

At Inclusive Minds, my goal is to support you, not just as a parent, but as a person navigating a complex, often emotionally charged system. Together, we’ll focus on building your confidence, managing stress, and ensuring your child gets the support they need—while helping you feel heard, prepared, and empowered every step of the way.
