Expert Educational Psychology, Advocacy & Evaluation
Strategic, legally grounded support for complex special education needs.
Expert Educational Support for Complex Decisions
Educational Services Collective provides high-level psycho‑educational evaluation, special education advocacy, and systems‑level consultation for families and school districts navigating complex, high‑stakes situations. With over a decade of experience inside public schools, therapeutic settings, and district leadership roles, I bring clarity, calm, and credibility to moments when educational decisions truly matter.
I work best with families and professionals who need more than surface‑level guidance — those facing disputed evaluations, discipline or expulsion concerns, safety and mental health complexities, or unclear eligibility under IDEA and Section 504.
Who I Serve:
Families seeking independent or second‑opinion psycho‑educational evaluations
Parents navigating IEP, 504, manifestation determination, or discipline proceedings
School districts needing overflow evaluations, consultation, or compliance support
Attorneys and clinicians seeking clear educational interpretation of complex data
What Sets This Practice Apart:
10+ years of district‑level leadership experience in public education
Deep expertise in IDEA, Section 504, and Oregon regulations
Extensive involvement in threat assessment, sexual incident response, and expulsion procedures
Calm, strategic approach grounded in procedural integrity and defensible decision‑making
This practice exists to bring steadiness and expertise into emotionally charged situations — without escalation, alarmism, or unnecessary conflict.
Who This Practice Is For:
This practice is for individuals and systems seeking clarity, integrity, and thoughtful decision-making in complex educational situations.
