Testimonials
Brandy is not only a phenomenal educator in practice but also an intuitive guide. She was able to assess the educational rut I was in with my children, help me set goals, provide what I needed to reach those goals and held my hand the whole way. I am so grateful for how she has brought me peace of mind and tangible success to my kiddos.

It would be hard to overstate Brandy’s impact on our child’s education and life trajectory. From pre-school through high school, she has helped us understand various behaviors in ways that have equipped us to care well for our child and access appropriate resources at different life stages. She has been a kind, knowledgeable, and steady presence during hard conversations about next steps and is so clearly “for” our child and for us as a family. I have referred many friends to her and have heard only positives from them. Because of her depth of knowledge and experience, she is often a good early contact when parents are wondering what might be going on with their child, whether they are noticing struggles in school, differences between their child and peers, or strong emotional responses or meltdowns. Brandy has championed our kid and our family in some of our most vulnerable and difficult moments as parents. Her calm demeanor, excellent assessment skills, and creative approach to problem-solving have been invaluable.

When we went to Brandy for an autism classification, she was calm and hopeful. She built good repertoire with our son and provided a safe space for my husband and I to process the news. When we've had questions or ongoing challenges, she is quick to set up meetings and provide really practical things for us to try! In March we had to pull our son out of mainstream school and begin homeschooling. It was an unexpected twist in our journey but Brandy was our amazing guide through the overwhelming season. She not only was our cheerleader but gave really helpful assistance in setting up a curriculum and answering countless questions. We couldn't have done this without her!

I first met Brandy ten years ago as my employer and my immediate supervisor. Through her I received training and supervision to work confidently and effectively as a student support teacher, tutor, and interventionist. She provided training for our staff on a broad range of topics, covering specific academic areas and curricula. The depth of our training came in Brandy’s passion for the personhood of our students as she introduced us to topics including self-regulation, executive function, attachment, and responsive behavior interventions. Whether developing practices to meet social skills needs or coaching parents and teachers in handling children with learning or behavioral differences, Brandy was attuned and responsive to the student body, as well as flexible and creative in training our staff. Today I see her as our area’s strongest resource for families with educational needs and recommend her without reservation!

Brandy has been instrumental in helping our family through some very difficult years. I honestly do not think we would be doing so well now if it were not for her help. She has supported us as parents - met with us, educated us, challenged us and gave us tools and suggestions for various challenges our family was facing. She is very well educated and has many years of experience with kids and families which makes her an amazing family coach. She has supported each of our children who are now 17, 14 and 10. With all of them having been adopted, each of them have had needs beyond what we knew how to handle and Brandy either already knew what to do based on her experience or would read and research. She met with them one on one, tried new ideas while teaching and training them. She also met with us as a family and did various exercises to bring us together as a family unit. If you are looking for someone who will show up, not give up and be instrumental in changing the course of your family's life towards something better - call Brandy!!

Brandy is a gem. I cannot speak highly enough of her as a colleague in the education world. She cares deeply, works extremely hard, is incredibly knowledgeable as well as a lifelong learner, and views children through a lens of personhood that gives them the opportunity to feel safe, seen, and to thrive. I trust her completely with my own children and have grown so much as a person, a professional, and a mother through knowing her.
