The Dyslexia Rescue Method
Dyslexia Rescue provides a three-pronged approach to resolve the core problems faced by children who are struggling with learning to read. We use an Orton Gillingham-based structured literacy approach to address the needs of children with dyslexia and other learning challenges, grounded in research-based best practices in reading intervention. Interwoven into every structured literacy lesson are methods of developing executive functioning skills which are commonly in deficit in children with ADHD. And, as the confusions of reading failure reverse and breakthroughs come, we are prepared to support the child emotionally through trauma-informed sensitivity and an emotionally healing approach (the core of our mission and ministry).
Families have two program options to choose from:
Our first program option is individual, live, private zoom lessons (housed under our Reading Rescue program - formerly of Naples, FL) where all services are rendered directly by our founder, director and master dyslexia specialist, Diana Finch, M.Ed., M.Div., an IDA (International Dyslexia Association) listed service provider. This program lasts 4-8 months, on average, depending upon the needs of the child. *Results may vary.
Our second program option is or our new, three-month, Dyslexia Rescue Parent Empowerment Phonics and Reading (DR PEPR) Boot Camp online course, where a child and parent work together to learn the Dyslexia Rescue methods and practice them together.
The PEPR Boot Camp option comes at a more than 70% discount to private lessons but requires a committed parent to do the work, side-by-side with the child.

Because many families just don't have the budget for private reading intervention, Dyslexia Rescue is offering a brand-new online course offering: group lessons in Orton-Gillingham based structured literacy at a deeply discounted rate from the traditional private lesson format. In this three-month online course, parents will learn methods to teach structured literacy to their own children, train executive functioning skills and hold emotionally safe space for emotional healing or trauma recovery. Save more than 70% off of our individualized, private tuition rate by joining. Enrollment opened November 4th and closes when we reach our maximum capacity. Don't wait. Course enrollment will close without notice when we hit capacity! Lessons begin January 19th.

The Dyslexia Rescue (DR) Method is a three-pronged approach: structured literacy instruction, executive functioning training and pastoral counseling.
Leading with the most powerful type of reading intervention - structured literacy instruction, we quickly and efficiently get to the root of confusions and resolve them. With training in Orton-Gillingham and Reading Recovery, a Master of Arts in Education, Elementary Education Certifications and a presidential appointment under George W. Bush, Minister Diana Finch, M.Ed., M.Div., brings master-level expertise to every structured literacy lesson.
At the word level, our curriculum includes phonemic awareness, sound-symbol correlations, letter patterns that control vowel sounds, syllabication, affixes, Greek and Latin roots. Word level skills are integrated into reading running text, fluency, phrasing and comprehension. Our methods are multi-sensory, explicit, direct, structured, systematic, sequential and neuroscience informed. Curriculum and methods are research-based best practices, according to decades of the best research, as outlined in the National Reading Panel's report in 2000 and two and a half more decades of excellent additional research.

With executive functioning skills development, trauma recovery and consistent emotional co-regulation, improvements are very often evident.
Each human is born sovereign and divine, with a spiritual core of peace, a still point. But, abiding in this life can disrupt that in many ways. Through consistent, compassionate, expert behavioral intervention and co-regulation throughout each structured literacy lesson, we build the child's awareness and skill in self-regulation, inhibitory control, goal-directed persistence, attention control, planning and organization, working memory and cognitive flexibility, restoring their connection to their still point.

Having a Bachelor of Psychology degree and a Master of Ministerial Science degree with a trauma recovery emphasis, Diana Finch, M.Ed., M.Div., weaves emotional recovery support throughout her structured literacy lessons.
The cognitive dissonance of confusion is at the root of the emotional trauma response that often accompanies reading struggles. When core reading confusions resolve, pent-up emotions often release and restoration begins. Then, as we begin building knowledge and reading skills, confidence begins to return and a sense of wholeness is gradually restored.
Through authentic, compassionate support, relationship and mentoring we hold the space for the child to heal on all levels: mental, emotional, social, familial and spiritual. As the cognitive and emotional dissonance of reading failure eases and fades, relationships come into balance, self-concept is improved and courage is restored... flow is restored. That connection to the core of their Being becomes seated again, joy and flow return and the future looks brighter.
Through cognitive reframing, the student can learn to shift limiting beliefs or negative self-talk into healthier perspectives, integrating past experiences and processing suppressed emotions. Our whole-person approach integrates mind, emotion, environment and present moment awareness into each interaction, supporting each individual's innate drive toward wholeness. Mindfulness, centered breath and metacognition are offered in support of emotional regulation throughout each session. While holding safe space for the session, we rewrite the story of failure into one of wholeness and success through active listening and compassion, offering and cultivating insights into past experiences and new meanings.
