Consultation approach
Evidence-based practice guides my work. I help the families, educators, and organizations supporting a child think through a specific concern and the decisions in front of them.
To understand what is happening and what has already been tried, I review evaluation findings, school records, and progress data. I also observe in the classroom, on the playground, or at preschool, and talk with the family and the educators and specialists involved. Recommendations bring together that information, the research, and what fits the setting.
A good plan makes clear what will change, who will carry it out, and how progress will be checked. It also has to fit the time and resources people have. If the support isn’t working, we look at why and adjust it.
Consultation can happen online, and I use data analysis and digital tools to track progress and share findings.
