Family members play a key role in the Special Education process. While coaching we come alongside you in whatever way you need: accompanying you to IEP meetings, helping you advocate to keep your child at the center of the process, supporting the team in drafting a neurodiversity affirming plan, and creating effective behavior plans.

If the traditional path does not work for your teen or young adult, finding a path forward can feel overwhelming. Whether they’re struggling academically, socially, emotionally, or in planning for the future, we can help them identify the barriers that are getting in their way and co-create the next steps forward. We work with you and your child to uncover their goals, build personalized strategies, and connect them with the right resources. Their future is full of possibilities and we’re here to help them make it happen.

We offer comprehensive support in our coaching services. Our approach involves meeting with the school team, observing your student in their learning environment and collaborating to create supports. We help establish concrete routines, build structures, provide behavior supports, recommend strategies for skill development, assist in safety planning, and address any other support needs that may arise for your child. As compared to our consulting services, our coaching extends to modeling and guiding the team in restructuring the learning environment so that it is more accessible to your student.

Our coaching services take a more hands on approach as compared to consulting. Our aim is to collaborate with you and your child to enhance your child's independence, foster helpful responses to stress, and implement safety planning when necessary. We begin by actively listening to your hopes and concerns, followed by observing, modeling and working together with your family to implement the strategies we’ve co-created with you.
