Owner/Educational Consultant & Advocate
Hi, I’m Tierney! I have worked and studied in the field of education and child development for the last 12 years, navigating through various roles such as teacher, consultant, director, and more. I have worked with children in preschool through 12th grade, both in the public and private spheres. I have extensive experience working with children with disabilities and collaborating with various providers within the medical, behavioral, and mental health fields. I hold a Master’s degree in Special Education and Education Administration, along with graduate certificates in autism and Applied Behavior Analysis.
My heart has always been in helping children and families. Assisting families in building confidence in navigating these confusing systems has been a primary focus. Fighting for your child to get what they need and deserve is exhausting and overwhelming. I work to ensure children are getting the support they need to maximize their quality of life.
My services are aimed to give you relief through:
*Educational and developmental consultation and planning- this includes identifying needed evaluations and services, assisting in school/program placement and transitions, and collaborating with school teams and outside providers
*IEP/504 development and advocacy
*1:1 community therapy to promote social, emotional, and behavioral growth
*School observations
*Tutoring
and more!
While I have been fortunate to work with educators and outside providers that are passionate about helping children, there is a huge gap that exists between the support that children need and what they are actually receiving. A collaborative, comprehensive approach results in the best outcome for your child.
As we all know, it takes a village, and without an experienced individual who is well-versed in this world, many children and families are underserved.
In every role I’ve had, I have always been limited in the depth of support I was allowed to offer. So, I took it upon myself to create my own services where compassion is the foundation, and I am free to thoroughly support your family.
I know how discouraging it can feel to not be seen and heard. I know how painful it can be to watch your child get overlooked and underserved. I see you, and I hear you. My goal is to ensure each family I work with is provided with the type of guidance, support, and advocacy that every child should be afforded.
