Welcome to Dolin Education Consulting, LLC

Do you want to help your child unlock their full potential? Need assistance with high school applications, college applications, support for learning differences, or have general K-12 education questions?

You’ve come to the right place!

Partner with me for expert guidance on your child’s educational journey. I have over 25 years of experience in education and have assisted hundreds of students and families from diverse backgrounds. I approach each student with unconditional positive regard and an understanding that every individual has unique needs. My mission is to provide customized support.

About Me

I am passionate about helping adolescents navigate their path to adulthood through a wealth of experience and a commitment to education spanning over three decades.  I have two children (one tween and one teen) and have first-hand experience with the challenges of parenting.  I have been a school counselor in Phoenix public schools for over 20 years, advocating for young people as an education professional and as a parent.

Why seek help?

Arizona high school counselors often have large caseloads, averaging over 650 students per counselor. While they are a valuable resource, they may not have the time to provide the personalized attention your family deserves.   Turn to AD Education Consulting for tailored, hands-on expertise to help ensure your child’s success.

High School and
College Counseling

Applying to high schools and colleges can be very stressful.  With so many steps to navigate, it’s easy to overlook or underprepare key aspects.   Here are a few areas that are often not fully addressed during preparation:

  • Building a Meaningful Resume & Extracurricular Activities
  • Presenting Speedbumps (disciplinary issues, poor grades, etc.) in the Best Light
  • Cultivating Relationships with Recommendation Writers
  • Developing a Realistic and Effective Timeline
  • Focusing Beyond Grades: Intellectual Curiosity, Academic Rigor, and Self-Improvement
  • Crafting Engaging and Original Essays

I’m here to help! Professional guidance can make a significant difference for both you and your child.

Supporting Students with Unique Learning Needs

Not all students fit the traditional education mold. Whether your child has ADHD, mental health challenges, or learning disabilities, they may need a specialized approach. The same applies if your child is gifted, twice exceptional (gifted with a learning disability), or on the autism spectrum. As a parent, watching your child struggle in school can be disheartening.

You don’t have to face this challenge alone. I’m here to guide you in understanding and accessing the support your child needs, both within the school system and the wider community. Together, we’ll ensure your child receives the advocacy and needed resources.
