Licensed Davis® Facilitator New Jersey

Welcome to Dyslexia Wellness!

Hello, I’m Joanna.

I am a Licensed Davis® Facilitator with a passion for helping children and adults strengthen their confidence, well-being and ability to reach their full potential.

My path to becoming a Davis facilitator is a personal one. My brother lived with undiagnosed dyslexia and ADHD until adulthood, and reflecting on the challenges he faced due to a lack of awareness and support has deeply shaped my mission. I’m dedicated to ensuring that neurodivergent learners receive the understanding, tools, and encouragement they need to thrive – not only academically, but also in their creativity, sense of identity, and self-worth.

I also bring 20 years of experience in the healthcare field as a physical therapy professional, giving me a strong foundation in both physical and cognitive development. This background allows me to offer neurodivergent learners an even deeper level of meaningful support and understanding. 

As a Davis facilitator, I feel truly privileged to guide learners using tools and insights that help them gain confidence in their abilities. The Davis® method inspires me with its unique and effective approach to dyslexia and ADHD. By building on each learner’s natural strengths, it empowers them to take responsibility for their own thinking processes and learning.

At the heart of the Davis philosophy is the belief that dyslexia is not a deficit – it’s a gift. This perspective resonates deeply with me, especially through the lens of my brother’s journey and his unique talents. I strongly believe that with the right support and tools, every learner can navigate challenges and unlock their full potential. 

Outside of my professional work, I really enjoy spending time outdoors and connecting with animals. I find wellness through hiking, biking, yoga, and meditation. In every client relationship, I strive to create a space where individuals feel respected, supported and empowered.
