Renee Robertson is an Educational Therapist and neurodiversity‑affirming educator with a Master of Arts in Child Study and Education from the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto. She brings over four years of full‑time classroom experience supporting diverse learners across grades, settings, and learning profiles.

Renee has worked extensively with neurodivergent students, including serving at Oregon’s only middle school designed exclusively for neurodiverse learners. She loved the work and continues to integrate those practices into her educational therapy approach—centering predictability, emotional safety, and individualized scaffolding.

She holds teaching certifications in British Columbia, Ontario, Oregon, and Washington State, with qualifications in General Special Education and English Language Learner instruction.

As an Educational Therapist, Renee blends academic intervention with executive functioning coaching. Her work focuses on helping learners understand their brains, build sustainable systems, and develop confidence in their abilities. Intervention goals include:

1. Improving time management, task initiation, and sustained attention

2. Strengthening planning, organization, and goal‑directed persistence

3. Enhancing cognitive flexibility, including shifting between tasks or ideas

4. Building metacognitive awareness and self‑regulation strategies

5. Applying compensatory tools and environmental supports such as visual schedules, graphic organizers, and structured routines

Renee also works extensively with neurodiverse adults, offering online‑only educational therapy and executive functioning coaching. She finds deep joy in supporting autistic and ADHD adults as they build systems that honor their brains, strengthen self‑trust, and create sustainable routines for work, health, and daily life. Her virtual practice allows her to support learners across regions while based in Canada, where she lives with her black lab–pit mix, Star.

In addition to her educational therapy work, Renee is a certified yoga instructor in Hatha, Restorative, and Vinyasa styles. Her practice emphasizes accessibility, nervous‑system regulation, and empowerment through embodied learning.

Renee’s approach is holistic, compassionate, and grounded in the belief that every learner—child, teen, or adult—deserves tools that honor their strengths, support their challenges, and open pathways toward independence and self‑trust.
