Clarity. Compassion. Choice.
Empowering families and schools to create aligned, inclusive learning paths—where every child can thrive.
At Mindful Alignment Consulting, we believe that every learner deserves an educational experience rooted in care, connection, and purpose. With over 30 years of combined experience in teaching and mental health, we partner with families and educators to navigate school systems, support neurodiverse needs, and cultivate trauma-informed environments. Whether you're exploring school options, finding supports and interventions for your child, or working to build a more inclusive classroom—we’re here to walk alongside you with clarity, compassion, and a deep commitment to growth.
Why This Partnership Matters
The clinician–educator model is at the heart of Mindful Alignment Consulting. At the intersection of mental health and education, our partnership brings the combined expertise of a licensed clinician and a licensed educator to help children, families, and schools thrive. By uniting two professional perspectives, we bridge the gap between mental health and education, ensuring that:
Students feel safe, supported, and ready to learn.
Families feel heard, not dismissed, and gain confidence navigating complex systems.
Educators have practical tools that reduce stress and improve outcomes.
Together, we help create school environments where every child can thrive.
