Celebrating the Incomparable Adolescent Brain
Grades Four through Twelve
Each individual brain incorporates a unique blend of intelligences and strengths. As an Educational Therapist, I appreciate the distinctive nature of each student's aptitude and develop a diverse and individualized approach to remediating learning challenges for each of my students.
I consider:

- Intellectual challenges and demands
- Types of intelligences
- Limitations, stress, and anxiety
- Formal and informal assessments
I emphasize:
- Building resilence
- Strenghts rather than weaknesses
- Intrinsic motivation
- Potential instead of limitations
- Developing self-efficacy, self-control, and self-awareness, and self-regulation
- Goal setting
- Strategic planning and thinking
- Problem solving and self-advocacy
- Metacognitive thinking
I remediate:
- ADHD
- Academic anxiety and stress
- Language processing challenges
