Educational Pathways specializes in assisting students and families to find alternative educational and therapeutic environments, which provide safe, supportive care and academic success while nurturing growth and change.
Melissa Shanahan, earned a M.A. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Denver and lives in Boulder, Colorado with her husband and two children. With over twenty years experience working with adolescents and their families, Melissa offers a personal approach helping, you navigate the best possible educational pathway for your child. As a counselor in drug and alcohol programs, residential treatment facilities, public high schools and outdoor education programs, she understands the turmoil that students face today and the need for parents to stay committed to keeping their children on track.
Centering on the student and his/her individual needs, the placement process begins with a phone call to determine whether an alternative placement is appropriate for your child. If we chose to work together, an in-depth assessment will promptly follow where we bring together the family to better understand their environment. The overall placement process can take from a few days to a few weeks. With Educational Pathways, you will receive complete individualized attention, guidance, and support as we match students with high quality schools and therapeutic programs offering clear boundaries, consistent structure while also encouraging students to grow emotionally and academically.
After your child's admittance, Educational Pathways remain engaged as an advocate for the family and student throughout their stay. The last thing that is done and the most important as placement, will be work with you safely to transition you back together or towards your child's next educational opportunity.
