Frequently Asked Questions
-
I provide virtual special education consulting to families throughout the state of Texas. While I support most school districts, there is one district I am unable to serve through my consultation services due to professional boundaries tied to my full-time role. If you’re unsure whether that applies to you, I’d be happy to clarify during your free consultation.
-
At this time, I do not attend school meetings due to my full-time professional commitments. However, I offer high-support packages that include both pre-meeting preparation and post-meeting debrief sessions to ensure you feel confident and well-equipped throughout the process.
