Debbie
School Psychologist-Specialist with Learning Disabilities
I have been a School Psychologist for over twenty years.

I have found that knowing how to "teach" your child the "skill" of learning is just as important as the specific subject matter. I am certified to work with children from K-12 years of age. All of my professional career has been spent working in special education. I have a Masters Degree fr... Read more
