You're trying to help your child, but the path forward isn't clear.
The late-night Google searches only leave you more confused.
The school says they've tried everything they can.
Professionals have different opinions about what comes next.
And you're terrified of choosing the wrong next step when your child's well-being is on the line.
You don’t have to navigate this alone.
Therapeutic consultant - expert guidance for families navigating mental health & learning challenges
From Confused
to Clear
Conflicting diagnoses. Contradictory advice. Treatments that went nowhere. The confusion is exhausting. I cut through the noise by assessing both mental health and learning needs together-giving you a clear picture of what's really going on and, more importantly, what will actually help your child thrive.
From Concerned to Confident
You're terrified of choosing wrong. That concern is completely valid-this decision feels huge. With years of experience and complete independence from programs, I give you honest, personalized guidance you can trust. No sales pitches. No guesswork. Just the confidence and clarity you need to move forward.
From Alone to Supported
This is a partnership, not a one-time consultation. You're not alone. From initial assessment through implementation and beyond, I stay with you. You get expert guidance when you're uncertain, emotional support when you're overwhelmed, and someone in your corner who genuinely believes in your family's success-for the long haul.
Why I Do This Work
I'm Kathy Lepage - School Psychologist & Therapeutic Consultant
The confusion and fear you're feeling right now? It's real, and I see you. After years as a school psychologist, I witnessed the same pattern again and again: Families drowning in conflicting advice. Bright students stuck. Creative minds shut down from misunderstood learning differences. Students who needed more than a school could provide.
The problem? Everyone was treating mental health and learning as separate issues. They're not.
A child with undiagnosed learning differences doesn't just struggle with academics-they develop anxiety, depression, school refusal. A teen with anxiety doesn't just feel worried-their grades plummet and their potential disappears. A young adult doesn't just graduate high school-they face a world they're unprepared to navigate. But it doesn't have to be this way. With the right assessment and support, these kids and young adults don't just survive-they thrive.
So I stepped out to do what schools and traditional therapy often can't: assess the complete child and give families honest, independent guidance that addresses the whole picture-not just isolated symptoms. Your child's story can be different, and you don't have to navigate it alone.
