Handwriting is a common area of concern for parents as children begin school and demands of writing increase. Areas of concern range from grasp pattern to illegible writing. Handwriting difficulties can lead children to feel frustrated and defeated with school work. Sometimes, behavioral issues can arise from the resultant decrease in self-esteem and confidence in academic skills. I can evaluate handwriting and other aspects that effect writing to create a treatment plan that will facilitate improvement in writing and confidence. I am currently pursuing my Level One certification through Handwriting Without Tears and utilize this program due to it's multi-sensory approach to handwriting.
