IEP & 504 Plan Advocacy
Supporting families of children with Tourette’s, OCD, Autism, ADHD and other diagnoses.
You know your child best—but navigating IEPs and 504 Plans can be overwhelming, especially when dealing with diagnoses like Tourette’s, OCD, Autism, or ADHD. I’m here to help you advocate with clarity and confidence, ensuring your child receives the services, accommodations, and understanding they need to thrive.
Services
IEP & 504 Plan Consultation
I help parents understand their child’s rights under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.
Review existing IEPs or 504 Plans to assess their effectiveness.
Identify necessary accommodations, modifications, and services.
Help parents prepare for school meetings and evaluations.
School Advocacy & Meeting Support
Navigating school systems can be overwhelming. Together, we will:
Attend IEP and 504 meetings to ensure your child’s needs are met.
Communicate with school staff to create appropriate accommodations for TS-related challenges.
Provide strategies for self-advocacy so students feel empowered in their learning environment.
Accommodations & Behavioral Support Planning
Students with TS may struggle with focus, impulsivity, anxiety, or social interactions. We develop tailored behavioral support strategies that can be incorporated into a 504 Plan or IEP, such as:
Classroom accommodations (e.g., movement breaks, testing modifications).
Positive behavioral interventions to support emotional regulation.
Teacher training recommendations to promote awareness and reduce stigma.

Document Review
This service goes beyond a simple review. It comprehensively analyzes educational policies, legal mandates, and the specific accommodations necessary for optimal learning outcomes. The estimated time spent reviewing records depends on the complexity of the case. You will be given a reasonable estimate of how much time will be spent developing your child’s plan before establishing services.
In-person Meetings/Observations
My services draw on specialized skills and expertise, along with any necessary travel, to ensure I provide personalized, practical support during a process that can significantly impact your child's academic outcomes.
