Consultation
Parents
My consultation with parents most often focuses on school-related issues and is often the prelude to a psycho-educational assessment in order to shed light on learning and/or social-emotional challenges.
Parents also consult me on home-related issues that may be of a sensitive nature.
Parents also request consultation concerning the management at home of children with Autism, Asperger’s Syndrome and Pervasive Developmental Disorder – Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS).
All consultations with parents are confidential and information is only shared with the school personnel with the parents’ written consent.
Schools
I work with teachers, such as special education teachers, counselors, and primary teachers. I also consult with individual teachers, who may require support in such areas as classroom management and the implementation of learning plans or IEPs for students with challenging needs.
