WELCOME to the web site of Andrew J. Erkis, Ph.D., educational consultant.  

My focus is on helping families find appropriate, safe, and effective out-of-home placements for children and teens whose needs are not being met in traditional settings.  I help families choose appropriate:

-        Private boarding schools

-         Therapeutic programs

-         Wilderness programs

-         Schools for students with learning disabilities

-         Drug and alcohol programs

-         Programs for young adults (drug and alcohol or transitional living)
