Navigating school systems, learning differences, or mental health challenges can leave you feeling overwhelmed and unsure how to best support your child.
My name is Lisa Rodriguez-Perez, Ed.S., and I support students and families who are navigating academic, developmental, and emotional complexities. As a Certified School Psychologist through the Florida Department of Education and a Licensed School Psychologist through both the Florida Department of Health and the California Board of Behavioral Sciences, I bring a decade of experience to my practice. My professional journey includes five years dedicated to inner-city schools in Los Angeles, as well as ongoing work within Central Florida communities, serving children from Pre-K through 12th grade (ages 4 to 21).
In addition to my work as a school psychologist, I have served as a clinical educator and crisis coordinator. My current focus centers on comprehensive whole-child assessments for Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, learning difficulties like dyslexia, executive dysfunction, giftedness, and emotional challenges such as anxiety, depression, and school refusal. As a dual practitioner working in both school systems and private practice, I am uniquely positioned to guide families through Individualized Education Plans (IEP) and Section 504 Accommodation Plans, ensuring your child receives the targeted advocacy and academic support they need to thrive.
