  1. SCHOOL CONSULTATION www.johntzanosphd.com

  2. Do you feel that your child's needs are not being met at school? As a parent, you might be interested in learning more about special education law and how it relates to your child. It can be challenging to navigate the special education world. In order to better work with schools to meet each student's needs, I can assist families in understanding their rights and the special education evaluation process.​ www.johntzanosphd.com

  3. A student must fulfill specific requirements outlined by federal and state laws and regulations in order to qualify. Special education or school-based services are not always guaranteed in the presence of a medical diagnosis. Please check the Colorado Department of Education's Special Education Office for more details here. www.johntzanosphd.com

  4. Parental advocacy for their children's needs in the educational system is made easier with the help of a special education consultant. I focus on helping kids and teenagers, especially those who struggle with emotional and learning disorders, ADHD, ASD, and other conditions. Children who are neurodiverse face particular difficulties that are frequently overlooked or misunderstood by educators, healthcare professionals (including mental health professionals), friends, and family. It’s no wonder that they have trouble getting the supports they need within the school system. www.johntzanosphd.com

  5. Common opportunities for consultation include: • Assisting families understand and advocate for Individualized Education Programs (IEP) and/or a 504 plans that meet the child's unique needs • Helping clients navigate the Special Education process • Attending special education meetings in schools • Observing children at school and providing recommendations​ www.johntzanosphd.com

  6. Autism Counseling Your teen has been diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum and you have a unique parenting journey to navigate. Is it difficult for your teen to understand or make friends? If he pulls away from you in the face of social situations, or if he doesn’t seem to be gaining independence as quickly as other teens, then these are issues that counseling can support. Counseling for teens who are on the Autism Spectrum can be a bit different than counseling for neurotypical teens.

  7. ADHD Counseling By the time kids with ADHD reach their teen years, they have often had years of not feeling good enough. They may own labels like “lazy”. Sometimes they have anxiety as well. Anxiety and ADHD are a combination many people experience. They get anxious because they are worried they will miss a deadline or because they forgot where they put something or they weren’t paying attention during the directions…again. www.johntzanosphd.com

  8. Anxiety and Depression Counseling Anxiety in teenagers takes so many forms — outbursts of stress and frustration, poor sleep, restlessness/impulsiveness, reliance on substances like caffeine or drugs to boost energy, having a harder time concentrating or sitting still. Some kids have trouble sleeping, some struggle with social interactions, while others worry about things they can’t control. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, 31.9% of teens 13-19 struggled with a diagnosable anxiety disorder over this last year. www.johntzanosphd.com

  9. What if my teenager does not want to come to therapy? Many teens think of counseling as punishment or may even feel uncomfortable with the idea of therapy.I offer a free 20 minute in-office consultation for your child to try out my counseling office. This helps them feel comfortable and able to express concerns about therapy, as well as gives them a chance to ask questions about me and get a sense what our sessions might be like.

  10. What are your fees? 90-minute intake session: $24060-minute individual psychotherapy session (50 minute session/10 minute administrative tasks): $160​PC/DM fees are billed at $200 per hour, or 100$ per parent or as specified in the court order. www.johntzanosphd.com

  11. How long will therapy take? Depending on the issue you are seeking help for, therapy sessions could last anywhere from 6 weeks to 6 months for relatively simple problems. You might need to invest more time in therapy—up to a year or longer—if your issues are complicated or have persisted for a long time. Your motivation is a significant factor that may affect the length of therapy. www.johntzanosphd.com
