About our Dyslexia Tutoring and Therapy Services

I began my journey to become a Certified Academic Language Therapist (CALT) when both of my sons were diagnosed with profound dyslexia. We quickly realized that traditional school methods for learning to read, write, and spell were not effective for their unique learning needs. It was up to me to be their champion to advocate for them and to educate myself on how to teach them in ways that suited their distinctive and intelligent brains.

​

For over 20 years as an experienced Certified Academic Language Therapist, I have been providing therapy and prescriptive intervention tutoring with fidelity to children, teens, and young adults. By using the Orton-Gillingham Approach, I can provide research-validated intervention to struggling readers and writers by focusing on their individual strengths and unique way of learning. This type of discovery learning is fun and exciting!

​

I am happy and proud to share that my sons have thrived through this journey. My oldest is now an aspiring filmmaker and screenwriter, while my youngest (pictured to the left) played college basketball and is now a yoga instructor and licensed massage therapist, running his own business and soon pursuing an MBA. The many other students I have had the privilege to work with are also thriving and succeeding, largely due to their perseverant spirits and the opportunity to learn in a way that meets their individual needs.
