504 Plan and Accommodations Consulting: Guidance and Support for School Success

504 Plan and Accommodations Consulting

Whole Mind Psychological Services provides school consultation and support to help students, families, and schools better understand learning needs and identify accommodations that can make school more accessible and manageable. We help families navigate the 504 Plan process with greater clarity, confidence, and practical guidance.

504 Plan and Accommodations Consulting can help with:
Difficulty staying focused, organized, or on task in the classroom
Attention, anxiety, health, learning, or executive functioning challenges that affect school performance
Needing extra time, reduced distractions, breaks, or support with assignments and tests
Understanding current accommodations and whether they are meeting your child’s needs

We will help you understand how 504 Plans work, what types of accommodations may be appropriate, and how your child’s individual needs may affect their access to learning. We can also help you prepare questions, review school documents, and identify strategies that support your child at school and at home.

With the right accommodations and support in place, students can feel more confident, capable, and successful in the classroom. Understanding their needs and advocating for meaningful support is an important first step toward helping them thrive in school and beyond.

What Our Clients Say

Our daughter was a high-performing and engaged student, but was challenged with standard classroom environments and ways of learning. The assessment process was incredibly thorough, supportive, and empowering, and the recommendations translated directly into practical classroom strategies. Today, our daughter is thriving with confidence and a love of learning at college!

Rhonda M.

It was a pleasure working with Michelle. She was professional and diligent in meeting the needs of our schools. Michelle hit the road running and was instrumental in ensuring that our schools remained compliant with state and federal regulations. Her services are highly recommended, and I hope I get the chance to work with her in the future.

Colleague

What sets Michelle apart is how she presents complex findings in a way that families truly understand. I’ve sat in meetings where parents arrived anxious and overwhelmed, and left feeling informed, reassured, and empowered. She has a rare ability to balance clinical depth with warmth and clarity.
