My Offer for Parents
I offer a complimentary 60 to 90 minutes Action Planning Session by phone/video conference that is informative, reassuring, and supportive. Parents must complete the Consultation Request and, upon receipt, will receive an invite to schedule the Action Planning Session.
It is an opportunity for you to describe in greater detail your concerns, to ask questions and expectations, and for me to ask questions and share my perspective.
The Action Planning Session may be all you need to put you on the right track moving forward to advocate on behalf of your child. Or we may mutually decide to work together at a reasonable fee as your coach consultant.
Engaging my services will require a My I.E.P. Consultant Agreement. Regardless of your decision, we will learn from the experience, and our time together will hopefully benefit you with a few practical “takeaways.”
Information submitted and discussed during the Action Planning Session will not be shared and will be treated as confidential as a professional norm but is not considered privileged communication.
If you decide to engage My I.E.P. Consultant after the Action Planning Session, the scope of work and fees are defined in the My I.E.P. Consultant Agreement. My I.E.P. Consultant's practice is to serve all potential clients regardless of their ability to pay by offering a discount on a sliding fee model based on family size and income. See FAQ for details.
