Stephanie Hewitt
Licensed Educational Psychologist & Owner
I am Stephanie, a Licensed Educational Psychologist in California.
Hi, I’m Stephanie Hewitt, a Licensed Educational Psychologist and the founder of Learning Pathways Educational Psychology PC. With over 15 years of experience working with children and families, I am dedicated to helping students succeed by providing comprehensive and compassionate assessments for learning disabilities, Autism, and ADHD.
My Journey & Approach
My journey in educational psychology began with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from the University of California, Santa Barbara, followed by a Master’s Degree and Specialist Degree in Education from California State University, Sacramento. I have also completed a post-graduate certification program in school neuropsychology, which has deepened my understanding of the cognitive and neurological aspects of learning.
As a parent of two school-age children, one of whom is on an Individualized Education Plan (IEP), I understand the parent perspective of raising children and navigating the educational system. This experience has given me a new perspective on the process and has allowed me to gain more compassion and empathy for parents going through similar challenges.
My approach is centered on providing neurodiversity-affirming, compassionate, and comprehensive assessments tailored to each individual’s unique needs. I believe in celebrating and supporting the diverse ways in which people think and learn. My evaluations are thorough and collaborative, involving a variety of tools, strategies, and conversations to gain a holistic understanding of each student. By focusing on strengths as well as areas of need, I aim to empower students and their families with actionable insights and practical recommendations. My goal is to create a supportive and respectful environment where every student can thrive and achieve their full potential.
Personal Experience & Roles
I have worked with students from age two through college in various educational settings, including public, private, charter, home, and nonpublic schools. In addition to my private practice, I teach school psychology graduate students at California State University, Sacramento (CSUS), and serve as the president of the Northeastern California Association of School Psychologists.
