I specialize in remediation and academic support for students K-12 and adults with language based learning disabilities, such as dyslexia. I have practiced exclusively as a linguistic and dyslexia specialist in the Colorado Springs community for over 25 years and have over 35,000 one-on-one sessions with students. My passion stems from the fact that I am a mother of a now adult son with multiple learning disabilities including dyslexia, dysgraphia, and ADHD. As a Classics major and graduate of Colorado College, I studied ancient Greek and Latin and have been immersed in linguistics and language structures academically and professionally.
