Therapeutic Tutoring launches referral program for students with learning differences

Therapeutic Tutoring, part of the Foresight Psychological Institute, launched a Referral Partner Program on Nov. 1 for clinicians and education professionals working with students who have ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety and related learning differences. The program aims to turn evaluation reports into coordinated tutoring and emotional support, with progress updates sent back to referring professionals.

Why it matters: - Many students leave evaluations with detailed recommendations that are never fully implemented. - Therapeutic Tutoring is trying to close that gap by linking academic intervention, emotional support and school coordination in one plan. - The program is designed for students whose needs span both learning and mental health support, including anxiety and executive function challenges.

What happened: - Therapeutic Tutoring launched a Referral Partner Program for neuropsychologists, school psychologists, educational consultants, special education advocates, therapists and pediatricians. - The launch took place Nov. 1 in San Diego. - The program is part of the Foresight Psychological Institute.

The details: - Therapeutic Tutoring says its model combines structured academic intervention with psychological strategies for anxiety, motivation and executive function in the same session. - Tutors coordinate with schools, IEP and 504 teams, and treating clinicians so student support functions as a single plan. - The program covers students with ADHD, dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, anxiety and twice-exceptional, or 2e, profiles. - Referring professionals get a family contact within one business day of referral. - Recommendations from psychological or neuropsychological reports are turned into specific tutoring goals. - With family consent, the referring professional and the student’s care team receive periodic progress updates. - The program includes participation in school and clinical team meetings when helpful. - Professionals can schedule a free conversation about a student before making a formal referral. - Therapeutic Tutoring provides one-page referral guides for families and professionals. - The service works with students from elementary school through college, graduate school and professional training. - Services are available in person in the greater Boston and San Diego areas and online nationwide. - Flexible Spending Account funds may be used. - A limited number of Foundation-supported seats are available to reduce costs for families with financial need. - Free consultations are available at therapeutictutoring.com.

Between the lines: - The referral program is built around a common failure point in special education and learning support: evaluation reports that do not translate into consistent action. - By packaging tutoring, therapy-informed strategies and cross-team coordination together, Therapeutic Tutoring is positioning itself as a bridge between diagnosis and day-to-day support. - The model may appeal to professionals who want a tighter feedback loop after evaluations, especially for students with overlapping academic and emotional needs.

What's next: - Referring professionals can begin using the new program immediately. - Therapeutic Tutoring will continue offering consultations, family materials and progress updates as part of the referral process. - Families needing support can access services in person or online through the company’s intake process.

The bottom line: - Therapeutic Tutoring wants to make referrals more actionable by connecting evaluations, tutoring and emotional support in one coordinated system.
