Neurodivergent College Consulting

Choosing the right college can feel overwhelming, especially for students who learn or think differently. Alera’s college consulting services are designed specifically for neurodivergent students (including students with ADHD, autism, learning differences, anxiety, emotional disabilities, or executive functioning challenges). I guide families through every step of the process to ensure each student finds a college environment where they can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

The goal of our work together is to help you and your student to move from high school to college with confidence, clarity, and the right supports in place.

  • Foundational College Search & Accommodation Roadmap (11th grade)

  • Comprehensive College Search, Application, Accommodation, and Neurodivergent-specific Financial Resources (11th grade)

  • Additional Services (e.g., 4-year high school planning for college success, executive functioning support in college, college case management, etc.)

Therapeutic School Placement

Some students struggle in their local K-12 schools, and the supports available are not enough to help them reach their potential. I can help you identify and place at some of the country’s best therapeutic settings based on your child’s unique academic, behavioral, and social emotional profile. I have successfully placed many students in day programs and residential treatment centers (RTCs), where students receive the academic and therapeutic supports necessary to thrive in school and beyond.

The goal of our work together is to help you and your student identify and access the most appropriate educational setting to experience confidence, clarity, and positivity about the future.
