It touches confidence, identity, and hope. Because we understand both the learning challenges and the emotional weight that comes with them, we’re here to walk beside you and your child, helping you find clarity, direction, and a path forward filled with confidence.

Dr. Rebecca Sanford

Students with dyslexia are my inspiration and fuel as I work to help them know they are intelligent and have much to give to the world.

I am first a parent who struggled to help my child learn to read. The many times I cried, racked my brain, and sought out anything that might have helped seemed endless at the time. Add on the guilt I felt as an educator who could not understand what was happening and that described my world. My child learned enough coping skills to make it and graduated with honors from high school, college, and obtained a Masters degree, but the journey was difficult. 

As I later worked in the classroom, I had struggling students who I felt I could not help, so I returned to school for my Masters degree. I learned much but it still wasn’t enough. Hence I pursued a Doctorate degree. I focused my research on dyslexia and learned as much as I could. I implemented much of what I learned with my class and shared with other teachers ways that we as educators could help students  begin to thrive. I understand what a parent goes through when a diagnosis is made or simply cannot understand why their student struggles. 

I cannot keep this to myself or my classroom, so I am now sharing my expertise with others on this journey who need direction navigating the life of dyslexia so that they are filled with hope and direction.

We Instill Hope

Our vision is to come alongside parents to instill confidence, hope, and direction for their child with dyslexia by providing science-based information, knowledge of the K-12 school system, and supportive resources.

Positive Aspects of Dyslexia

What if dyslexia isn’t just something to overcome, but something powerful to embrace? For so long, the spotlight has been on the struggles, the late nights, the frustration, the quiet self-doubt. But there is another side to dyslexia filled with creativity, bold thinking, innovation, and the ability to see what others often miss. In this webinar, you’ll uncover the strengths woven into the dyslexic brain and learn how to use them in school and everyday life intentionally. When students begin to understand their strengths, something changes. Shame starts to fade. Confidence begins to grow. Hope feels possible again. Dyslexia does bring challenges, but it also brings remarkable gifts. Let’s uncover them and learn how to use them with purpose.

I was very concerned my son may have dyslexia and would need services. I was very overwhelmed trying to figure out what to do for him. Upon recommendation, Becky swooped in with ideas I could apply immediately and a game plan for evaluation and services. I went from having a lot of guesswork to taking immediate action. I highly recommend a consultation with Becky.

I would like to share my experience with Rebecca Sanford, and the support I received from her in my journey to get my son help with his dyslexia. I had a feeling that my son needed extra help with his reading and writing. His teachers always made me feel like he was ok and didn’t need any extra help outside of school. He had some interventions during the day, but things didn't seem to be improving as much as they should have. It didn't really feel like he was getting the help he needed, and I always felt like I was getting the run-around, but something always lingered in my mind that there was a deeper issue at hand. Nothing ever changed until I was given the amazing opportunity to speak with Rebecca. She listened to me and reassured me that there were options and that I was right to look further into things. She gave me a lot of resources and places to contact to get my son tested for dyslexia. We ended up going to Children's Hospital where he was diagnosed with dyslexia. After all the time of not knowing what was going on or how to help my son, I was finally able to get him help after the support I received from Rebecca. She is very knowledgeable and kind and gave me new hope and direction. I am so glad to have had the opportunity to have had her Guidance.
