College counseling at the intersection of adolescent development and selective admissions.

A high-touch, long-term partnership for families who want clarity, confidence, and a thoughtful path to college.

With nearly twenty years of experience working directly with teenagers and inside the admissions world, I guide students through this process in a way that supports their growth and positions them intelligently within a competitive system.

This isn’t just about submitting applications.

It’s about helping your teen understand themselves — and translating that self-understanding into a compelling, cohesive, well-executed college strategy.

• Personalized one-on-one counseling starting as early as 9th grade, and continuing all the way through high school graduation
• Academic & extracurricular planning
• College list development and refinement
• Application strategy & deadline management
• Essay brainstorming, guidance, and revision support
• Interview preparation
• Financial aid & scholarship guidance
• Support for up to 10 college applications (additional applications can be added to package)
• Parent meetings & ongoing communication
• Access to CounselMore to keep everything organized

Support is tailored to each student’s needs and evolves over time as goals and timelines become clearer.

The Comprehensive Support Package is a high-touch, multi-year partnership designed to support students thoughtfully through each stage of high school and the college admissions process.

The total investment for this package is $8,000.

To make this accessible and manageable for families, payment is structured as:

• Down payment at enrollment
  A down payment is required to reserve your student’s spot and begin onboarding, assessments, and initial planning.
   
• Comfortable monthly payments
  The remaining balance is paid in monthly installments over the course of the engagement, with the full balance paid by the first half of the student’s senior year.
   

This structure allows families to plan ahead financially while ensuring consistent, comprehensive support for their student over time. 

Payment details are discussed transparently during the consultation to ensure the structure feels sustainable for your family.

Deep developmental expertise
Nearly two decades working directly with adolescents means I understand motivation, identity formation, executive functioning, and the realities of growing up in this era.

Real admissions literacy
Experience inside the admissions world brings clarity about how applications are evaluated — beyond rumors, rankings, and internet myths.

Strategic growth, not résumé engineering
I don’t manage your teen’s life or manufacture a narrative. I help them take ownership of their path and present it with clarity and coherence.
