Now that school is back, you might be starting to notice a few things like homework is a battle, reading feels harder than it should, attention is all over the place, or your child just seems more anxious or frustrated.

It can be hard to know what’s just part of getting back into the school routine and what might be worth a closer look.

I offer comprehensive evaluations, screenings, and parent consultations for concerns like ADHD, autism, anxiety, dyslexia, giftedness, executive functioning, IEP/504 needs, and more.

If you’ve had that little feeling of “maybe we should look into this,” feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to chat and see if we’re a good fit.

Every child’s path to success looks different, shaped by their own strengths, needs, pace, and way of learning. 🌱✨

As a school psychologist, I help families better understand their child’s learning style, emotional needs, and the supports that can help them feel more confident and successful at home and school.

Have questions about your child’s learning, attention, behavior, or school support needs? I’d love to help you find the next right step!

April is Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month 💛🌈

At Autism South Africa, we celebrate the diversity of minds and the value that different ways of thinking bring to our communities. There is no single “right” way for a brain to work — and when people are supported, included, and accepted, everyone benefits.

A more understanding world is one where autistic people are not only recognised, but truly belong.

Let’s move beyond awareness to acceptance, inclusion, and support.

As parents, strength is not about having it all together. It is about being open, asking for help, and showing compassion to ourselves and our kids.

Check in with yourself and someone you care about. We never walk this journey alone. We grow stronger together, one open heart at a time.

When we share our struggles and listen with empathy, we remind one another that no one walks this path alone. Let’s keep building spaces where it feels safe to speak, feel, and grow one conversation at a time.💛

I’ve been getting a lot of calls about after-school meltdowns from parents lately. If this sounds familiar, know that you’re not alone 💛

These moments hit hard at my house too 🤯 After a long school day, my kids’ brains have been working overtime. When they get home, they sometimes let it all out. While it is challenging, I remind myself that our house is their emotional 'safe zone.'

Here are 3 quick tips that work:
✨ Snack first (everything’s harder when they’re hungry)
✨ A little quiet time to recharge by drawing, reading or listening to music
✨ Moving their bodies - bike, scooters, playing outside

These meltdowns are common, and with small shifts, afternoons can feel so much calmer!

This is a great way to explain your child's testing appointment to them!

Does your kid have a psych assessment coming up?

This is a simple way to prepare them.

Learning more about your brain doesn't have to be a scary or negative thing. The more we know, the better we can take care of ourselves.

Yes?
