Ways We Help Your Child's Success

School Psychological Services

We offer a variety of school psychological services including full-scale educational evaluations, educational consulting, behavior assessments, functional behavior plans, executive functions, dyslexia interventions, and more. Visit the School Psychological Services Page for a detailed look at all of our therapy options.

SAIL Program

The SAIL Program at MINDscapes was created as the solution for children with atypical learning needs. SAIL moves them forward in their areas of weakness and builds on their areas of strength. Treatment plans are created with a data-driven, individualized approach to education. Group therapy focuses on academics, individual services supplement areas of need, and it all comes together at the end of the day with “Social Hour.” SAIL operates 3 days per week (M/W/F), with the younger age group attending in the morning and the older group (Middle School +) attending in the afternoon.

Educational Services

Our educational services include Orton-Gillingham tutoring, academic interventions, behavioral interventions, IEP planning, IEP servicing, homeschool consultation, social skills development, and more. We assist individuals with autism, cognitive impairments, social-emotional issues, and a variety of learning disorders.

Occupational Therapy

Our occupational therapists provide a range of services from hands-on therapy to strengthen muscles to helping students develop daily living skills like shopping and cleaning. We also assist individuals in building their employment skills.

Speech and Language Therapy

Our Speech and Language Therapy department is equipped to service all of your S/L therapy needs. We can evaluate your child’s speech and create a therapy plan that will help them make progress in the classroom setting. It’s not just how we pronounce words (articulation) but how we put them together in a meaningful way that helps us communicate effectively.

Additional Offerings

Our range of offerings also includes cognitive/achievement testing, behavior counseling, speech and language therapy, social pragmatics, occupational therapy, Orton-Gillingham tutoring, dyslexia screenings, intervention services, independent educational evaluations, and more.

About MINDscapes

MINDscapes was founded in 2019 by Dr. Kelli Sears and her daughter, Kendra Potts, with a mission to provide high-quality educational and therapeutic services to children with unique learning needs. Dr. Sears has over twelve years of experience as a school psychologist in Columbus, during which she founded Navigating Autism (2012-2019) and supervised teams of special education service providers. After parting ways with her previous venture, she established MINDscapes Ohio to continue her mission of delivering exceptional educational support.

What Our Clients Say About Us...

"MINDscapes has become an incredible resource and blessing for my son and our family. You will not find bigger hearts to advocate and serve your child with unique needs. Between their professional expertise, thoughtful and customized approach, and their understanding of how kids learn and how to make it fun for them, this place is an indispensable partner in my child’s growth and education. He looks forward to seeing his teachers and friends and leaves each week more hungry to learn and, best of all, more confident about who he is. Whether you homeschool or advocate for your child at school, give them a call. They’re the kind of people you want on your family’s team."

"This establishment has been a gift from above for our entire family. My son was struggling with reading, executive functioning, speech, and practicing safety in this world prior to attending this program. His main teacher, Stephen Potts, gained our son’s trust almost immediately by accepting him as his own child. Stephen and Lucas worked really hard on social skills, and now Lucas is a confident reader. I highly recommend this program for all children and especially those who struggle through traditional education programs. This staff is amazing and will bless your entire family."

"I just want to give a shout out to a lot of the MINDscapes employees; I have had the pleasure of working with them this school year. They always ask if there is anything they can do to help or lighten the load. They are just amazing people in general, and I know that their best interest is in our kiddos. I just love what they do and how amazing they have been. So, THANK YOU! And keep doing what you’re doing!!! You all are AMAZING."

"I am an Autism Resource Clinician at Nationwide Children's Hospital Psychiatry Department. Our office works specifically with children with a diagnosis of Autism. One of our requirements is that we get the testing report showing that the patient has an official diagnosis of Autism using either an ADOS or ADIR. I have gotten several tests from your team and I think they are some of the best that I have gotten. They are so easy to read and have such great information."
