A tidy, modern learning space centered on a wide, light-wood desk covered with colorful educational therapy tools: interlocking geometric blocks, laminated pattern cards, a small sand timer, and a sturdy spiral notebook opened to a neatly organized page of shapes and arrows. On the wall behind, a large, vibrant growth-themed poster shows an abstract tree with branching pathways, symbolizing brain connections. Soft morning daylight filters through a nearby window, casting gentle, hopeful shadows. Photographic realism at eye level, with a shallow depth of field that keeps the desk in crisp focus and the background slightly blurred, creating a calm, professional atmosphere that emphasizes cognitive growth and independent learning.

Therapist Profiles

Debbie Engle, PCET

My name is Debbie Engle and I am an NILD  PCET Trained Educator in the Greenfield, WI area. I am also a trained Neurodivergence Coach. I provide services in person at my home and online through the Google Meet platform at no extra cost.

My passion is to see learners reach their full potential in school and in life.  In my 25 years of teaching, I have worked with children with special needs and I am honored to help children with a variety of disabilities learn, grow and become wonderful, independent adults.

I am committed to walking with you and your child down the path of discovery as I evaluate and analyze your child’s strengths and struggles and then create a plan for educational services to meet your child’s educational needs and goals. 

I can include Neurodivergence Coaching as a part of therapy or tutoring sessions or separately as needed.

If you go to the NILD website and look up therapists in WI you will see that I am licensed with NILD.org and the certifications that I have earned.

Shelley Luettgen, ET

As a veteran Wisconsin-certified teacher and Purdue University graduate with more than two decades of classroom experience, I bring a unique blend of professional expertise and personal insight to educational therapy. I specialize in providing structured math and writing instruction, alongside targeted executive functioning support, for neurodivergent, twice-exceptional (2e) learners and students with learning disabilities.

Neurodivergence is prevalent in my own family, meaning I have sat on both sides of the parent-teacher conference table. I know firsthand what it takes to navigate the school system and raise these remarkable, complex children. Because of this, my approach goes far beyond quick homework fixes; I am dedicated to building permanent cognitive development, sustainable organizational skills, and genuine academic confidence. I welcome the opportunity to partner with your family and help your child truly thrive and feel great about learning.

In the background, out of focus, a bookshelf holds neatly labeled storage bins and a few potted plants for warmth. Diffused overhead lighting and soft window light combine to create an even, welcoming glow. Shot from a slightly elevated angle, rule-of-thirds composition, conveying focused practice, structure, and supportive educational therapy without appearing clinical.
