WHAT IS EDUCATIONAL THERAPY
Educational Therapy combines educational and therapeutic approaches to maximize a child’s learning p
An Educational Therapist is trained to use a global learning approach that harnesses a child’s strengths to manage their weaknesses. As therapist we work to help the children learn to be better advocates for themselves.
I strive to maximize a child’s learning potential by providing: consultation, evaluation, remediation, individual coaching, case management, and advocacy. Educational Therapy can help the students discover their unique learning styles and then assist them in applying these skills to attack problem areas.

Individual Educational Therapy
In school Support
Debra provides direct on campus support in your child’s classroom during his or her school day. Debra works individually with the student to help build skills and strategies for success. She collaborates with the classroom teacher and school staff to determine the best time in the students’ schedule to work one on one with the Educational Therapist. Debra can see students privately in a separate room or work along side the student in the classroom. For many busy families, working with the student during the school day not only capitalizes on their classroom learning but also helps eliminate the difficulties with after school sports and schedules.
Learning Center
Parent/Child Consultation
In school Support
A leaning center allows the Educational Therapist to work with several students at a time guiding them through both independent instruction, and small group instruction. Students are grouped with similar needs, ages and learning goals. The students learn to use programs that enable them to self monitor their progress. This type of environment is often conducive for summer sessions or after school sessions.

TESTIMONIALS
“Our son spent 3 years under the educational therapy of Debra Cohen. He started with her at the age of 7 We started using Debra because our son was absent from school for 2 years due to having Leukemia. When he finally joined his peers, he was behind in many ways due to his chemotherapy treatment and cranial radiation. However, she was able to get him caught up, and taught him much, much more. She is an incredible educational therapist and was always there to push our son along. Our son graduated from lower school and is now in middle school getting A's. We truly are thankful for all her help and time and we miss her dearly.”
