Qualifications

My Qualifications

Peg’s background as a reading tutor serves her well in working with a varied clientele of children and adults with learning, attention, and behavior challenges, including those with Asperger’s, ADD, sensory integration challenges, dyslexia and learning disorders. She believes that everyone deserves the chance to grow into the person they were meant to be and the importance of the mind/body/spirit connection. Because of that passionate belief, she sought out training in HANDLE to provide the missing pieces of the puzzle, initially for the children she tutored, and now for all her clients.

Peg worked for The HANDLE Institute for 5 years, first at the front desk, where she spoke with many clients and heard their stories; then, as outreach coordinator and Judith Bluestone’s personal assistant. She is the author of several articles about HANDLE and its success in restoring hope and assisting others to grow into their full potential and is published in Seattle’s Child magazine, Northwest Educator, and Washington Diplomat. Peg is a Certified HANDLE Practitioner and Screener.
