Our Mission

At Frankenberger Associates, our mission is to empower individuals of all ages with the tools, strategies, and confidence they need to thrive—academically, socially, emotionally, and professionally. We are committed to delivering highly personalized, strengths-based support through expert coaching, assessment, and collaboration. By meeting each client where they are and honoring their unique learning profile, we help turn challenges into growth and potential into progress.

Our Story: A Legacy of Empowerment

Frankenberger Associates was founded in 1987 by Caryl Frankenberger, a passionate psychoeducational diagnostician who wanted to understand and support students with learning differences. What began as a small practice focused on diagnosing learning challenges quickly became more comprehensive.

As Caryl worked with families, she recognized their struggles beyond just diagnosis. She realized that these families truly needed personalized, practical solutions to empower their children. This insight led to the expansion of Frankenberger Associates into a full-fledged Learning Solutions Center.

Our deeply individualized approach has positively impacted thousands of students and their families, fostering academic and social success. We remain committed to our founding principle: ensuring every student has the tools they need to succeed in the classroom and beyond.

Our Approach: Turning Challenges into Strengths

At Frankenberger Associates, we specialize in personalized support for children, teens, and adults navigating executive function challenges, learning differences, ADHD, and social-emotional needs. Our approach is rooted in customization—because meaningful progress starts with understanding the individual. Every client receives a plan tailored to their learning profile, strengths, challenges, and real-world goals. We combine evidence-based strategies with practical coaching to strengthen skills like attention, task initiation, time management, organization, emotional regulation, and social communication. Whether it’s a student struggling to stay on top of schoolwork or an adult seeking a career change or greater structure and focus in daily life, we’re here to help clients build confidence, independence, and long-term success.

This 6-module online course is the best training I have ever participated in. As an IEC who provides high school and college consulting for students who have specific learning, cognitive and/or developmental challenges, the course deepened my understanding of learning challenges, and my ability to read and interpret evaluations. I developed new questioning techniques to discern my students’ learning strengths, average abilities, and challenges, and I watched the videos and read the supplemental articles on my own timeline, there was no pressure. Quite simply, this course was a game changer for me, and I think it will be the same...

Amy J. Brown, M.Ed. and Independent Educational Consultant, Educational Transitions Consulting

This course was exactly what I needed to feel more confident in my role as Director of Academic Support. The modules were comprehensive and practical with supporting materials to reinforce the topics. The fact that I can continue to access the videos and readings upon completing the course has been a fantastic resource for me. All educators would benefit from this course.

Leslie Creus, Director of Academic Support/EAl Department Head, EF Academy

Eagle Hill School and I personally have worked with Frankenberger Associates for over twenty years, and I have enjoyed and benefited greatly from our incredibly long and strong relationship. Caryl Frankenberger is a trusted and knowledgeable colleague and friend. Many years ago, Caryl gave a presentation to the EHS faculty on cognitive testing, and to this day, I am grateful to Caryl for this presentation. I have worked with Caryl and have likely read more than 100 of her evaluations in considering her clients for EHS. Caryl’s evaluations are well-written and help the reader to get...

Dana Harbert, Director of Admissions – Eagle Hill School

Frankenberger Associates truly understands the way children interact in the real world. This gives them a unique ability to help children for whom social interactions are difficult. In less than one year of weekly sessions, my child has gained a wealth of knowledge about social skills and behavior and new insight into his own and his peers' situations. He has learned, among many things, to "read a room," to slip in and out of conversation easily, how to ask questions and keep a conversation moving along, how to advocate for himself with others, and how to make and keep friends....

I am so happy I took the 6 module Understanding Diverse Learning Profile course. I am an Executive Assistant working at Frankenberger Associates and I wanted to take the course to better understand FA’s services. The course was outstanding. From the perspective of someone who is a parent, and not an educator, I gained an enormous amount of knowledge about executive functioning, social skills, evaluation and brain training. I learned about the intricacies of understanding student learning profiles and I loved the videos about working memory, processing speed, ADHD and Dyslexia. Learning about the brain was fascinating and I left...

All seems to be progressing well, small changes leading to better overall functioning, less anxiety and more productivity are the goals being addressed. Looking forward to continued improvement.

My student, while a relatively new client of Frankenberger Associates, is already finding work with his coach to be helpful and effective.

Joan Wittan, College Consulting Collaborative

Thank you so much for setting my husband up with such a fantastic coach! I have observed his organization, task initiation, and vulnerability increase exponentially. The classes have been so helpful, and he told me tonight that he will be signing up for more sessions. He is starting a new job and wants to make sure he does not fall into the same habits that have hindered his success before.
