Dive confidently into your academic journey in an environment of genuine acceptance and unwavering support
Learning Link is for you or your child if:
If there's been a diagnosis of a learning disability like dyslexia, ADHD, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, or poor reading comprehension.
You’re frustrated and overwhelmed. There's understanding of concepts during tutoring, but it's hard to apply that knowledge afterwards.
A neuropsychological or educational assessment recommends work with an expert to develop executive function skills.
It's necessary to re-learn academic material. Ideally, with a thorough process that methodically addresses your underlying challenges.

-- CS, current client
Before my husband and I met Maria, my daughter was struggling with school. Everything about second grade just seemed overwhelming.
Now, our daughter has improved her academics and a variety of executive functioning skills like metacognitive awareness, self-regulation, time management, and positive self-talk.
Most importantly, Maria taught my daughter to read!
Finding Maria was the beginning of the process of everything feeling BETTER.
I thoroughly analyze each client's unique learning profile -- from formal and informal assessments to early school experiences to the nuances of family dynamics.
2. Deep Dive
First, I work to normalize the situation. No matter how difficult the circumstances may seem, there is hope. These learning issues can, and will, be overcome.

5. Launch
I combine one-to-one client support sessions (usually twice a week) with case management. That means I lead communication and collaboration between the client family, classroom teachers, therapists, and other support members.
4. Nurture
Peace of Mind is
a Phone Call Away
We'll discuss your concerns and opportunities. If we're a fit, great!
If not, I'll do my best to refer you to the right professional for you.
