Drawn together by a shared goal to help struggling students, Karen and Melissa created the K&M Center in 1992. Each student who learns to read, write and/or gain confidence in his or her ability to learn affirms for Karen and Melissa that they are achieving their goal.

Karen and Melissa were both in graduate school and working as educational therapists with private practices when they met. They instantly realized their complementary skills and the alignment of their goals. Looking forward to graduation and finding private practice lonely, they decided to open an office together. The first office had extra space for a new educational specialist to be hired and trained, beginning what is now the K&M Center.

The K&M Center has grown over the years but remains a small, personalized center with highly trained and supervised educational specialists. The combination of Karen's psychotherapy perspective, along with Melissa's emphasis on the psychology of learning, formed the K&M Center mission to view the whole child as they identify and address the child's learning needs. This view enables K&M to remediate the root cause of each child's learning or attention challenge and make lasting changes.

Your child will develop the underlying skills needed to become an independent learner at the K&M Center. We are committed to finding the correct intervention for each child that comes to our center.
