Educational Consulting & Advocacy
Educational consultation addresses questions about learning needs, school placement, specific services, interventions, and navigating school systems/procedures. Consultation can help determine if an assessment is necessary as well as when it might be most beneficial. Consultative services can include a review of previous assessments and school records (including 504 plans and IEPs) to determine which school and private interventions would be most effective. Dr. Cummins can attend school SST, 504/accommodation plan, and IEP meetings to present assessment information. She can also provide ongoing advocacy services for clients.
