Moving from high school to college means a major shift in how accommodations work. I help students and families understand those differences, prepare for disability services, review documentation for general readiness, and plan for a more confident start to college.

Not all disability services offices operate the same way. I help students and families prepare for campus visits and disability-services meetings, ask better questions, understand what the answers may mean, and identify potential strengths, limitations, or red flags before making a college decision.

Transferring colleges can create new disability-services and accommodation questions, especially for students moving into upper-level coursework or professional programs. I help students prepare for the transition, connect with the new disability services office, and plan for the academic demands ahead.

Disability documentation can be difficult to understand, especially when students have never had it explained to them. I help students make sense of their documentation, and accommodation needs so they can better understand and communicate their own disability-related needs.

College students are expected to communicate for themselves, but that is a skill that often takes practice. I help students prepare for conversations and emails with disability services, professors, advisors, and other campus offices through coaching, roleplay, and practical communication strategies.

When an accommodation is delayed, misunderstood, or not working as expected, it can be difficult to know what to do next. I help students organize the situation, identify the appropriate office or process, prepare questions, and plan effective next steps.

A difficult semester can provide useful information about what needs to change. I help students look at what contributed to the problem, including accommodation use, course load, communication, and campus supports, and develop a practical plan for the next semester.
