About Us
Heather Knickerbocker, M.A., Ed.S., M.S.L. Education Advocate | Special Education Expert | Behavior Support Specialist
With over 20 years of experience in special education and more than 5 years focused on behavior intervention, I bring both deep expertise and a compassionate approach to advocacy. My academic background includes:
- A Bachelor’s in Special Education
- A Master’s in Special Education with a concentration in Science
- An Educational Specialist (Ed.S.) in Curriculum & Administration
- A Master of Studies in Law (M.S.L.) with a focus on Education Law & Advocacy
I support families in across every US state as they navigate the complexities of 504 Plans, IEPs, Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs), eligibility meetings, and school-related disputes. I offer document reviews, virtual meeting participation, and clear, strategic guidance to ensure your child receives the services and supports they are legally entitled to.
My mission is simple: to help you advocate with confidence and ensure your child’s educational needs are truly being met.
