She is certified in AutPlay, a neurodiversity affirming play therapy approach, and welcomes neurodivergent students.
Private Evaluation
At Breakthrough Education Support, we offer both comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations, and targeted assessments. Comprehensive assessments include evaluation of cognitive, behavioral, social/emotional and learning profiles to answer specific questions and address concerns. Sometimes, families are seeking answers to a specific question and a more targeted assessment is appropriate. To find out which is right for you and/or your child please set up a free 20 minute consultation.
Independent Educational Evaluations (IEEs)
Independent Educational Evaluations (IEEs) are assessments that are conducted after your child’s school has already conducted their own evaluation if there is a disagreement. If you are not satisfied with the results of your child’s school evaluation you may formally request an IEE from the Individualized Education Program (IEP) team. The cost of the evaluation is paid for by the school district, and is considered by the IEP team upon completion.
Gifted Testing

Parent Consultation and Education
Parent consultation services support parents and guardians through meetings with Rowan to support navigating the education system, reviewing IEPs, and support in advocacy for your child.
Individual Academic Support & Tutoring
Reading and Math
We offer personalized baseline assessments and individualized tutoring programs to develop and strengthen academic skills and accelerate progress to full proficiency.
Writing
We pinpoint barriers to success and give students systems they can use to approach writing tasks across a variety of genres, audiences and purposes. Tutors can support students with their assignments for school, if appropriate, or can provide writing experiences to target skill development based on student needs. We also support using tech tools as appropriate.
Organization & Time Management
Through interviews, activities and support with assignments, we help students understand themselves as learners and suggest strategies to support their goals as they learn to balance the demands of school and life and become more independent.
