"Candice has been an invaluable resource for our family. Our son, who is gifted, had trouble managing his emotions and often shut down under pressure. Through Candice’s coaching, we learned practical strategies to support him, and he’s now more confident and able to handle challenges at school and at home. As parents, we feel much more equipped to help him navigate his struggles."

-Parent of 12 year old

"Working with Candice has made a real difference for our family. She really understands the complexities of gifted kids and gave us practical tools that fit our child’s needs. Her guidance helped us through tough moments, like emotional meltdowns, and brought more calm to our home.

We’ve also grown as parents, learning how to better support our child without feeling overwhelmed. Candice’s support has been invaluable, and we’re grateful for the clarity and confidence we’ve gained along the way."
-JW, parent of 7 year old

Let’s Get Started!


I’m deeply passionate about empowering gifted and twice-exceptional (2e) children—those who are both gifted and have a learning difference. As a board member of the Oregon Association for Talented and Gifted (OATAG), I’ve gained invaluable insights into the unique needs of these exceptional kids. Parents are often relieved to find someone who truly understands and connects with their child’s strengths and challenges!
