I am new to blogging but I enjoy writing about the interesting issues I deal with in my educational therapy practice located in Pismo Beach. Many people wonder what I do, so the best way to explain educational therapy is to note that Psychologists and Counselors work with the psychosocial issues of a person, but Educational Therapists look at learning and how that impacts a person's life. Any age or type of person can benefit from our work because we look at how a person is wired and then, base a plan of assistance specific to that person's needs. Since I have been in this field for over 30 years and hold two doctorates in the areas of Language, Reading, and Culture, as well as Bilingual Special Education, my unique background and practice focuses on the "whole person" perspective rather than a theory-only perspective of assistance.
