Educational specialists in this program are highly trained in techniques specific to reading, writing, math, and study skills across all age groups and learning disabilities, and many are trained in various Orton-Gillingham approaches and other multi-sensory structured language intervention programs that address phonemic awareness, orthographic competence, reading fluency, reading comprehension, and spelling. Staff also include specialists trained in multi-sensory math intervention programs and executive functioning programs, and many offer work in targeted academic areas such as foreign language or science courses. Educational therapists and educational specialists work with children and adults with learning differences, and all 1:1 services are offered over the summer months, with additional intensive intervention services and educational groups available during the summer. The program’s mission is to empower individuals at any age with learning and social-emotional challenges by providing diagnostic, therapy, and support services to help navigate their educational and mental health journey and fulfill their career goals. Morrissey Compton is a non-profit organization that follows professional standards and is HIPPA compliant, and it is committed to providing culturally responsive and non-discriminatory services to all individuals regardless of race, ethnic background, sexual orientation, gender identity, religious affiliation, and socio-economic standing. The Brentar Scholarship Fund provides financial assistance for low-income and finance-hardship youth and adults seeking services.

One parent described a psychoeducational evaluation from Morrissey Compton as a “game-changer” that gave a clear understanding of a teenage student’s learning profile and the language and tools to advocate for needed support heading into high school.
