Boulder Dyslexia Therapy

Boulder Dyslexia Therapy provides one on one academic therapy for dyslexic and twice exceptional students as well as academic consulting for families.

Dyslexia is the unexpected inability to read.  It is a common learning difference found in an estimated twenty percent of all people.  Dyslexia is not tied to a low IQ. In fact, many dyslexic people are extremely bright. I teach these children to read, write and spell in a warm, fun, creative atmosphere. 

Neurodiverse children often struggle with emotional regulation in addition to their learning struggles.  No one can learn when if their amygdala is firing. I call that "Survival Brain." Teaching the tools of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mind/Body Medicine, I help children learn to use these tools to self-regulate and move into "Learning Brain."  

Dyslexic and twice exceptional students often struggle in traditional public and private school settings.  Many solutions exist for these out of the box learners.  I work with parents and students to create hybrid learning situations in which students can succeed.
