A Clearer Path Through College

College disability services can be confusing. I provide clear, practical guidance to help students and families understand the process, make informed decisions, and move forward with confidence.

Start with a Free Consultation

Your first conversation with me is free. We can spend up to 20 minutes by phone or video talking about what’s going on, what kind of support you’re looking for, and whether Pathfinder is a good fit.

If you decide to move forward, we’ll also discuss service options and pricing.

HOW I CAN HELP

  • College accommodations operate very differently from high school supports. I help students and families understand the process, what responsibilities shift to the student, and what to expect when working with a college disability services office.

  • Good preparation can make the transition to college much smoother. I help students think ahead about documentation, accommodations, important conversations, campus resources, and the practical steps they may need to take before and during the semester.

  • Students are expected to speak for themselves in college, but knowing what to say and how to say it takes practice. I help students prepare for conversations and emails with disability services, professors, advisors, and other campus offices.

  • Being approved for accommodations is only part of the process. I help students understand how to use their accommodations effectively, plan ahead, follow college procedures, and recognize when something needs attention.

  • College requires students to manage far more on their own. I help students develop realistic strategies for organization, planning, time management, academic follow-through, and using campus supports in ways that fit how they actually work.

  • When something becomes confusing or does not go as planned, students and families may not know where to turn. I help clarify the situation, identify practical options, prepare for the right conversations, and develop a reasonable next step.
