Catherine leads with a servant heart, and she has created a community of like-minded powerhouses! The Master IEP Coach® Community quickly became MY people. They allowed me to be my authentic self and better educate students and families. This mentorship has truly been a game-changer for me.
It's been almost 30 years since I sat at my first IEP meeting as a new teacher (spoiler alert, I didn't stay a classroom teacher for long). But, my first taste of the IEP rollercoaster was in the front row, at my brother's IEP meeting. I knew right then, the IEP process needed help, and I was all in.
3 decades ago, I felt helpless and hopeless about Special Education.
That first IEP meeting I attended with my Mom for my brother (who has Down syndrome), was brutal. I watched my Mom squirm. Nobody prepped my her for the uncomfortable conversations that were happening. I felt helpless.
Just a few years later I walked into my first classroom as a Special Education teacher. It was empty. No books. No supplies. No guidance on how to implement the stack of IEPs I was handed. I felt hopeless.
But, now I'm filled with hope & possibilities for every IEP meeting and I can't wait to show you how you can be, too.
i can help because i've been there
but nowI know how to help!

Frequently Asked Questions
Will you teach me Special Education law?
Catherine is not a lawyer and doesn't give legal advice. Instead, she'll share with you EXACTLY where to look in IDEA Law (it's for all 50 states) to get the details you need to make THE BEST IEP decisions and hear YES at the IEP table more often. All decisions are your own and by the way... no decision is ever permanent. Catherine will teach you how to make the best decisions for now and how to switch them later!
Does this help me build a career as an IEP Coach/Advocate?
Yes! Included with your Mentorship, you'll receive business strategy sessions that show you the exact 8 steps that Catherine has used for 30 years to build her own career coaching parents and IEP teams through the Special Education system. If you are thinking about creating income by helping others, this is the perfect start.
Noteworthy: If you don't want to get paid for your IEP expertise, you'll ignore the business trainings and get massive value from the mentorship by using everything at your own IEP table.
I'm busy! How long will this take?
You can binge your entire Master IEP Coach® library in a weekend and download your Master IEP Coach® Certificate, but... most people take 3-4 weeks to go deep into the videos, guidebooks, and asking Catherine questions through the 1:1 support. There is no set schedule. You do everything on your timeline!
I'm a teacher, can I stay in the classroom and do this?
YES! You can use everything you learn at your current IEP meetings and you can help families outside of your classroom. Everything inside of the Master IEP Coach® Mentorship helps families and schools work together, even through the toughest situations. You will NEVER want to get paid by families in your own district, but you can absolutely help families in surrounding districts and nationwide.
I'm a parent, can I really do this?
YES! You can use everything you learn at your current IEP meetings and you can help families outside of your district. (I never recommend getting paid to help families in your own child's district.) Everything inside of the Master IEP Coach® Mentorship helps families and schools work together, even through the toughest situations. And, if you decide a business isn't for you... you'll LOVE using all the strategies at your own IEP table!
Got a different question?
Send Catherine a text at 815-302-1273 and say: I'm thinking about becoming a Master IEP Coach®, but I need to know (insert your question here).
Yes, that's really Catherine's number, don't worry, she keeps her phone on Do Not Disturb most of the time. Go ahead and send that text at 2am - she'll get back to you over her morning coffee. She's serious about changing Special Education and wants you to have all the answers you need to make your decision to become a Master IEP Coach®.
