Bio for Julie Nichols--
I have 25+ years of experience both as an educator/provider combined and as a parent who has raised two sons with developmental/learning disabilities (Autism and ADHD/LD). I serve a wide age range, from 5 through adulthood. I provide Educational Therapy services and basic
vocational skills remotely with a physical office also at my home located at 15107 Cog Hill, Selma TX 78154 as an additional option. I've been
in private practice for over ten years with expanding virtual success over the last four years which is why I have a new (as of 5-1-2024) Vocational Specialist. I hold a BS in Education from Baylor University (1993), a Master of Education from Concordia University Texas (2009),
and post-graduate credentialing. All of my Educational Therapy services are one-to-one, but my vocational classes are in small groups of 2 to 4 students. Please see credentialing links on the next page.

In her experience, she has served transition-aged students on work sites and taught them
appropriate social skills. In her most recent virtual experience, it consisted of helping
customers with self-advocacy, personal adjustment skills, career exploration,
job searching, resume preparation, interview practice, vocational evaluations, and
work incentives. Sarah graduated from Kent State University with a Bachelors of
Science in Justice Studies in 2012 and a Master of Education in Rehabilitation
Counseling in 2015. Sarah holds Texas VR credentialing, has virtual Texas experience, and has
specialized credentialing as a Workplace Incentive Practitioner through Cornell University's ILR
