The Preliminary Meeting
A preliminary half-hour consultation will be offered gratis to every prospective client. At this initial meeting both the student and his/her legal guardian(s) must be present. In general, this meeting serves as an opportunity for the parent and student: to dialogue with me about the student's needs and goals; to find out from me exactly what types of service I can offer to help the student attain his/her goals; and to ask any questions remaining after this dialogue. Furthermore, students and parents are encouraged to bring to the meeting whatever educational records they feel are necessary for explaining the reason(s) they seek my services. All meetings between student and/or parent(s) or guardian(s) and I, myself, are fully confidential.
