Objective:  The overall objectives are to increase empathy and understanding, foster meaningful dialogue and interactions and make life better for all concerned.  The goals for the child are to improve their quality of life, increase their independence, and enhance their progress toward reaching their full potential.

Parent Education/Consulting:  Kathleen has a deep understanding of children with neuro-developmental differences. She believes that each child is unique and her coaching consulting services center on the child’s motivation, attention, and learning styles. Her approach is bespoke, individually designed consultation sessions based on the particular individual child, family, teacher, and community member.

  • Understanding Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
    • Setting up your home for a high needs child
    • Sensory processing difficulties and the creation of body breaks
    • The physical environment at home, at school and in the community
    • Age-specific issues as a child grows and transitions to adulthood

    • Outings: to be like everyone, they need to be with everyone
