We correct the root cause of learning challenges—like autism, ADD, dyslexia+, and SPD—instead of just managing symptoms. With personalized strategies, we help children and adults turn challenges into strengths and succeed with confidence.
We offer a correction to the cause of your challenges, rather than simple tools for managing behaviors and symptoms associated with Autism, ADHD, dyslexia+, SPD and other learning differences. Whether you're a child just starting your journey or an adult navigating life's complexities, we provide personalized strategies to turn challenges into strengths, empowering you to succeed.
Janell Warkentin serves clients with autism, ADD, dyslexia+, SPD, and other learning differences from ages 5 to adult across Oregon, Northern California, and Southern Washington. Since 2010, she has worked as a licensed learning specialist and trainer of trainers, helping individuals unlock their potential. Programs may be virtual or in-person, depending on your needs.
Because every learner’s gifts and challenges are unique, each program is individually designed. The building blocks are similar, but no two journeys are the same.
Focus areas may include:
Academic Focused
Reading
Writing
Math
Attention Mastery
Social Interaction
Executive Function
Social Focused/Challenge Focused
Transitions or changes in routine
Communication (both verbal and non-verbal)
Following directions
*Perceiving and navigation space
Timing and sequencing motor skills
Irritability and mood regulation
Regulating energy level
*Abnormal response to sensory stimuli (sound, touch, taste, pain)
The customization of each program begins with your specific goals, which we explore together before your program officially starts.
Step 1: Free Phone Consultation - We begin with a complimentary call to explain our services and answer your questions.
Step 2: In-Depth Assessment ($150) - When you’re ready to move forward, we’ll schedule a written and video evaluation. This assessment helps us identify your goals and challenges, and together we create the framework for your program.
Step 3: Personalized 1:1 Program - Each program is facilitated by a licensed learning specialist. Sessions are designed to equip clients with the tools they need to succeed. Most programs run 5–10 days, with each day about the length of a school day.
Parent training (when applicable) and post-program follow-up are included to ensure continued success and support.
"I can’t say enough about my experience working with Janell. From the very beginning, she made me feel seen, heard, and respected as an individual. I had struggled with reading for most of my life, and honestly, I thought I had hit a wall—I never imagined I could improve beyond a certain level.
But Janell’s approach was completely different from anything I had tried before. She didn’t just give me a one-size-fits-all program; she tailored every step to my specific needs, strengths, and learning style. Because of that, I started making progress faster than I ever expected.
The biggest surprise? I advanced in my reading levels beyond what I thought was even possible for me. For the first time, I actually enjoy reading. Janell didn’t just help me improve my skills; she helped me see my own potential. I’m so grateful for this experience!"
