Educational Advocacy

With over a decade of experience as a school social worker, I understand how overwhelming and uncertain navigating the school system can feel for parents. I’ve worked alongside many families providing IEP support through Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), 504 plans, special education services, and behavioral supports. I know you want what’s best for your child, and I use this experience to offer steady guidance, reassurance, and support—helping you feel informed, confident, and hopeful as we work together to support your child by:  

- Guiding families through IEP meetings, Multidisciplinary Evaluation Team (MET) meetings, and school-based planning processes.  

- Interpreting educational records and assessments to identify your child’s strengths and areas of need.  

- Advocating effectively for appropriate services, supports, and accommodations.  

- Collaborating with school staff to develop practical, supportive solutions tailored to your child.  

- Providing strategies and resources that empower families to navigate the school system with confidence.  

My background as a school social worker allows me to bridge the gap between families and schools, ensuring your child’s educational needs are understood and met.
