When things at school are not going well, parents often look to academic tutoring as a solution. But tutoring often doesn't work and instead of alleviating the problem, traditional tutoring may exacerbate your child's struggles leading to added frustration and feelings of failure. Greta Harman M.Ed. BCET is NOT a tutor. Greta is a board certified educational therapist who specializes in individual therapy programs to help your child overcome their learning challenges. Educational therapy focuses on the underlying foundation to learning which includes cognitive processes such as memory, problem solving, attention, regulation and flexibility.
Where To Start
New clients that have do not have any formal diagnosis or testing will begin with a Neuro-Educational screening that identifies their overall strengths and weakness and helps Greta determine the best intervention program for your child.
With that information, Greta will work together with you and the other members of your child's learning team to put together an intervention program that addresses the specific challenges and needs of your child.
Using an individualized learning plan, students receive interventions in the specific areas of need which can be anything from phonological processing to convergence to motor planning to bilateral integration to fine motor and handwriting. Greta makes each session child-centered and multi-sensory so children begin to LOVE the learning process and are quickly actively engaged and motivated by their own success. Sessions include games, gross motor, fine motor, floor time, mindfulness and most importantly, all sessions are 100% individualized and are built with the WHOLE CHILD, WHOLE BRAIN in mind.
