Hi! I’m Talia
I love spending time with my family exploring our wonderful city, getting lost in a good book, and lifting heavy weights! I’m also a big fan of musicals, travel, and enjoying Toronto's best ice cream offerings.
With over 15 years as a Special Education teacher, I have very in-depth knowledge of school strategies, frameworks and processes. Dealing with a new diagnosis or sitting in an IEP meeting is incredibly stressful when you're doing it solo, and my goal is to take that weight off your shoulders. Together, we can translate complicated clinical reports into real-world steps, practice the best ways to talk to your child's school, and fine-tune their IEP so it actually works for them. If the public system isn't clicking, we will explore private schools together until we find the place where your child will truly thrive.
I work with families so you never feel alone navigating your child's diagnosis, ensuring you feel completely supported through every step of their special education journey.
