Life Coaching

Hi! I'm Dr. Stefanie - a former special education teacher and campus administrator for grades K-12. My education background taught me how to support various learning styles and the social-emotional needs of individuals with Autism, intellectual disabilities, and behavior disorders. I am passionate about helping those with autism and similar special needs because I have family members and loved ones with similar diagnoses and struggles. I personally understand the need for services outside of education and after formal education ends. I fill this on-going need through my Coaching program!

My coaching prepares individuals (and their families) for post-secondary education opportunities, employment, and independent living. Through coaching, I help individuals achieve independence and self-advocacy so they can enjoy a life that is most meaningful to them. The coaching experience guides individuals to learn practical skills necessary to thrive independently in the world around them - at a pace that is comfortable and in conjunction with other supports that may exist. Currently, coaching is provided to individuals transitioning out of high school and in other stages of adulthood. 
In addition to providing individual support, Dr. Stefanie partners with school districts, early childhood centers, and non-profit organizations to spread awareness on neurodiversity through education and training. Stefanie is committed to assisting neurodiverse individuals achieve personal success! 

I’m Lorraine Klim, an educator passionate about supporting families and communities seeking to increase inclusivity and acceptance while implementing support systems to bring out the best in everyone. My career path has led me through opportunities and experiences that have developed a personal affinity and capacity to successfully develop programs, training, coaching, and support to carry ideas from design to execution. In my last two positions, I expanded existing Autism support classrooms and public school district programs using research-based practices and protocols. This includes being the co-author and developer of a Texas Education Agency grant to provide services to students with Autism. This million-dollar grant involved a co-op of school districts along the Texas Gulf Coast that were identified as needing weekly support and coaching to develop an Autism program that did not exist. We were awarded the grant and successfully implemented services! My passion around the design, development, and execution of training projects, especially regarding focus, action, and accountability for those with neurodiversity is now available to you!
