Let's talk.

  •  A 15-minute discovery meeting (phone call or video chat) to see if we are a good fit.

  • Next, establish your account in the client portal, provide intake documentation, and complete the initial assessment questionnaires. 

  • Intake assessment is scheduled  (this can occur at home or in the school/daycare setting)

  • As part of the intake process, I will review any evaluation reports and other related documentation to create a streamlined and comprehensive approach to mentoring and advocacy.

What works for you? Please be open and honest about what is feasible for your family. 

A few things about home visits...

  1. Please do not concern yourself with cleaning up your house. Abundant clutter and occasional snack remnants create a most welcoming environment. 

  2. Please don't worry about being dressed and groomed. Pajamas, bedheads, and bits of leftover breakfast on the cheeks is a great look! 

  3. Be prepared to ask questions and don't hesitate to communicate openly about issues or concerns you have.
