Bio
Hi! I'm Jessica, an Educational Therapist and Wellness Coach with over ten years of experience working with families and independent schools in NYC. Over the years, I've witnessed the incredible impact that social-emotional learning can have on students' academic success, happiness and overall well-being. With this in mind, I started my practice in the hope of providing children with the opportunity to develop the social and academic skills they need to thrive. As an expert in special education, I am trained in a number of research-based interventions and programs that complement students strengths and target their needs. I offer academic tutoring and social-emotional coaching in Brookhaven, Bellport, The Hamptons and virtually. If you are curious about my services, please do not hesitate to reach out. Initial consultations are always free of charge.

Academic Tutoring
Reading, Writing, Math, Test Prep (ISEE, CTP5, WrAP)
We'll start with a parent consultation and student meeting to determine your child's unique strengths, needs, interests and goals. Whether your child needs remediation, enrichment or homework help, we'll work together to create a plan. I am trained in a number of research-based reading (comprehension, phonics and fluency), writing, math, and executive functioning interventions and programs and tailor each session to meet your child's needs. I believe that collaboration is a key part of your child's success and welcome the opportunity to connect with teachers and other providers.
Social-Emotional Coaching
EQ + Life Skills
Social-Emotional Coaching helps kids thrive in the classroom and beyond by helping them build a toolbox of essential social-emotional skills, like: understanding and managing emotions, self-awareness, social-awareness, problem-solving, and communication. Kids with strong social-emotional skills are better able to cope with everyday challenges and benefit academically and socially. Coaching sessions are tailored to each child and designed to meet them where they are. Some possible avenues of instruction include: passion projects, art, literature, educational videos, and games.
