Dysgraphia Support (K–8th grade)

What Is Dysgraphia Support?

Dysgraphia affects a child's ability to translate thoughts into written words — it's not about intelligence or effort, but about how the brain manages the physical and cognitive process of writing. Dysgraphia Support uses a structured, multi-sensory approach to build the underlying skills — letter formation, spelling patterns, and written expression — so your child can get their ideas onto the page with less frustration and more confidence.

Led by a licensed pediatric occupational therapist with 20+ years of experience, this program brings clinical insight into every session, helping children build real, lasting strategies for letter formation, spelling, and written expression. This is dysgraphia-informed support, not a diagnosis or clinical treatment.


Is This Right for Your Child?

This may be a good fit if your child:

  • Struggles to get their ideas from their head onto the page, even though they can explain things clearly out loud

  • Has messy, inconsistent, or slow handwriting that hasn't improved with practice

  • Avoids writing tasks, gets frustrated, or shuts down when asked to write

  • Can read and spell some words correctly but not others, especially irregular words

  • Has been told they're "not trying hard enough" when writing, despite real effort

  • Needs extra time or support to complete written schoolwork

How to Get Started

STEP 1: Every family starts with a Writing Assessment — $250

A 45 minute virtual session, one-on-one with Cherie.

Before any sessions begin, we start here. In this assessment I'll:

- Review a parent intake and your concerns

- Look closely at your child's actual writing samples and school work

- Evaluate current writing skills against age/grade expectations

- Identify what's really driving the struggle — motor, cognitive, or both

- Talk it through with you in a parent interview

You'll receive a written summary with my specific findings and a recommended plan within 2–3 business days — whether or not you continue with sessions.

$50 of your assessment fee is credited toward any support package — no expiration.**

This is dysgraphia-informed support, not a diagnosis or clinical evaluation. My written summary can be shared with your child's pediatrician, diagnostician, or school team.

From there, if we continue, you'll choose the package that fits below.

STEP 2: After Your Assessment, choose the support that fits.

You work directly with Cherie — a pediatric OT with 20+ years working with children.
