“Every child, regardless of ability, deserves the tools, support, and belief that they can rise to meet their potential.”
Dr. Andrea Larmon
School-based Services
Schools are extraordinary places, full of curiosity, growth, connection, and possibility. But when challenging behaviors show up in the classroom, they can disrupt not just one child’s learning experience, but the entire learning community around them. Teachers feel stretched. Students feel frustrated. Families feel worried. And everyone wonders what do we do next?
Family-based Services
Every family has its own unique rhythm, its own beautiful story, and its own set of challenges. And when those challenges feel bigger than the everyday, when behavior at home feels overwhelming, communication feels strained, or you simply aren’t sure how to best support your child, having a trusted, compassionate expert in your corner can make all the difference in the world.
Professional Development
Compliance is a promise, a commitment to ensuring that every child receives the individualized, high-quality services they are legally entitled to and wholeheartedly deserve. It requires expertise, diligence, and a clear and honest look at whether the programs and practices in place are truly delivering what they should.

Dr. Larmon’s Experience With…
BCBA Services
A Board Certified Behavior Analyst, or BCBA, is a highly trained specialist in understanding human behavior — and more importantly, in helping people thrive.
BCBAs study the science of behavior to uncover the “why” behind the way people act, feel, and respond to the world around them. Rather than simply addressing challenging behaviors on the surface, a BCBA digs deeper to understand the root causes and designs individualized, compassionate strategies that create meaningful and lasting change.
At the heart of every BCBA’s work is one simple goal, to help every child live their happiest, most fulfilling life.
School Psychologist Services
A School Psychologist is so much more than a tester or evaluator, they are a caring advocate, a thoughtful problem-solver, and a trusted partner for children, families and schools.
School Psychologists are uniquely trained to understand the connection between a child’s emotional well-being, learning experiences and overall development. Their work is rooted in one unwavering belief: that every child deserves the support, understanding and opportunity to reach their fullest potential.
At the heart of Dr. Andrea’s school psychology services is one simple but powerful commitment: to ensure that no child is ever overlooked, misunderstood, or left without the support they need to thrive. Through comprehensive, compassionate, and individualized evaluations, Dr. Andrea helps families and schools gain the clarity, understanding and direction they need to open the right doors for every child.

That is exactly why Dr. Andrea is proud to bring her 34 years of expertise, warmth, and passion directly to you, wherever you are, whenever you need it, through personalized virtual coaching services.
Whether you are a parent searching for guidance on how to better support your child at home, a teacher looking for fresh strategies to create a more positive and productive classroom, or an educator or administrator navigating the complexities of supporting students with diverse needs, Dr. Andrea is here for you. No long commutes, no waiting rooms, no one-size-fits-all advice. Just real, meaningful, and personalized coaching delivered with care, from the comfort of your own home or school.
Professional Development Services
Every child who walks through a classroom door deserves to feel included, understood, and supported. And the educators who welcome them deserve the same. Through her professional development services in behavior support and disability inclusion, Dr. Andrea partners with schools and teams to create learning environments where every child, and every educator can truly flourish.
With 34 years of real-world experience and a heart for both children and the people who serve them, Dr. Andrea delivers engaging, practical, and meaningful professional development sessions that go far beyond a typical training day. Her sessions are warm, collaborative, and grounded in strategies that educators can walk away with and use right away — because theory is only as valuable as what happens next in the classroom.

Program Evaluations
Every child deserves a program that is thoughtfully designed, carefully implemented, and continuously growing to meet their needs. But how do you know if what you have in place is truly making the difference it should?
Whether you are looking for a closer look at an individual child’s program or a broader evaluation of your entire special education department, Dr. Andrea brings the expertise, care, and fresh perspective needed to help you see clearly, and move forward with confidence.
My Approach & Philosophy
Ever since I can remember, I’ve been passionate about learning and even more so about the incredible people we get to learn with. That’s really what drew me to education in the first place: the chance to connect with and inspire the next generation of learners and educators.
Over the years, my journey as a teacher, administrator, and consultant has shaped the way I think about what great education truly looks like. I’ve grown from focusing on how I teach to deeply centering the full experience of every student, family, and staff member I have the privilege of working with.
At the heart of it all, I’m a lifelong learner, and nothing brings me more joy than igniting that same love of learning in others.
Resources for Families, Educators & Professionals
At the heart of everything Dr. Andrea does is one simple but powerful belief, that knowledge is one of the greatest gifts we can offer the children, families and educators we serve. When parents feel informed, teachers feel equipped and school teams feel confident, amazing things happen for the children in their care.
That is why Dr. Andrea has created this dedicated resources page, a carefully curated collection of practical tools, helpful guides and trusted links.
