About Me

Hello and welcome! My name is Ashley Jerro, and I am passionate about helping children and adults unlock their full potential through language therapy.

I graduated from Virginia Tech in 1994 with a B.A. in English, and since 2018 I have devoted my career to supporting individuals with dyslexia, ADHD, and executive function challenges. My approach combines evidence-based literacy strategies with mindfulness techniques, always tailored to the unique needs of each learner.

At home in Virginia, I share my life with my husband, our six wonderful children, and our four beloved dogs. My family and my love of animals inspire much of my work. I believe deeply in compassion, respect, and creating safe, supportive environments for all living beings.

My Mission

I believe that every child and adult deserves the chance to become a confident reader and writer, no matter how their brain works. Learning differences are not a sign of being "less than"-in fact, dyslexia and other learning styles often come with incredible strengths. With the right tools and support, the brain is capable of amazing growth-something called neuroplasticity. I love helping others discover that spark of progress because it builds confidence that carries far beyond the classroom. My mission is simple:

To make literacy and learning accessible.
To celebrate the strengths that come with different learning styles.
To provide strategies that help kids (and parents) feel encouraged and empowered.
To always work from a place of kindness, compassion, and respect-for people and for animals.

Every child and adult can learn. Every child and adult deserves to feel smart, capable, and proud of their progress. That is why I do what I do.
