Every child deserves to be understood—not simply assessed.

Teacher · Administrator · School Psychologist · Parent

Professional Licensure: Licensed School Psychologist in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Washington State.

For more than two decades, I have had the privilege of supporting children and families from multiple perspectives—as a teacher, administrator, school psychologist, and parent.

I founded Exceptional Student Solutions to provide comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations that go beyond test scores. My goal is to help families understand their child’s unique strengths, identify areas of need, and leave with practical recommendations and renewed confidence about the future.

Whether you are seeking answers about learning, attention, executive functioning, autism, behavior, or social-emotional development, I am committed to providing compassionate, individualized evaluations that help children thrive.

Every family deserves to leave with clarity, practical guidance, and hope for the future.

Is an Evaluation Right for My Child?

Common reasons families reach out

An evaluation may be helpful when a child’s strengths and needs are not yet fully understood.

Reading is much harder than expected. Homework takes hours or causes frequent frustration. My child struggles to focus or complete work. School anxiety is affecting confidence or attendance. Teachers have expressed learning or behavior concerns. My homeschooled child needs formal testing. I need clearer answers—not just another label. I want practical guidance for what to do next.

If any of these sound familiar, a complimentary consultation can help clarify the next step.
