Dr. Decia Dixon

LICENSED PSYCHOLOGIST, SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGIST, AND PARENTING COACH

Welcome

 

As a parent and child psychologist, with over 10 years of experience, I know first-hand the challenges and uncertainties that come with raising a child. Although you may feel a little lost or alone right now, I can empathize with the emotions that you are experiencing and I understand the many questions and concerns you have for your child’s well-being:

How can I help my child be successful in life?

Why is my child struggling in school?

Does my child have a learning disability?

Is it really possible to find out what is going on in my child’s classroom so I can better understand why school is difficult for them?

Why is parenting so overwhelming?

How can I raise my child to be happy, resilient and confident?

How can I have a family filled with joy, harmony, and peace?

If you are asking yourself any of these things, you are not alone. Becoming a parent is one of the most rewarding and challenging jobs you will ever have—and it is seldom easy. The questions that you’re asking are perfectly valid and very common. However, just because they are common, does not mean that, as parents, we naturally have the solutions to them. So, if you are looking for answers, you don’t have to find them on your own.

What if I told you there was help? That you don’t have to walk this journey alone?

Allow me to help you transform your family, restore peace, and find the happiness that your family desires. I am ready to work with you as a parent coach or as a speaker for parent groups. Together we’ll explore approaches to parenting to help maximize your success in relating to your child and develop solutions for common parenting problems.

I am also available to help you uncover the mystery of why your child is struggling to learn in school. As a certified school psychologist, I can conduct school observations or a psychoeducational assessment. The results can provide profound insight, awareness and tools for overcoming learning difficulties and achieving greater academic success.

Whatever your situation feels like, whatever your child’s needs might be, we can create solutions together.

Worried about your child struggling academically? Are you concerned that school difficulties will impact their quality of life? A psychoeducational assessment can help diagnose a learning disability and identify strengths and weaknesses. It can also help to develop specific learning strategies and accommodations.
