p.e.a.c.e. Inclusion Consulting: Supporting Neurodivergence

About Sherri

Sherri Tease is a Neuro-Inclusive Consultant, educator, and creator of the P.E.A.C.E. Framework, with nearly two decades of experience working with diverse learners across educational settings.

Throughout her career, Sherri has specialized in supporting neurodivergent students, collaborating closely with occupational therapists, speech therapists, and behavioral specialists to ensure learners receive the support they need to succeed both academically and emotionally.

She is also trained in sensory integration practices, allowing her to better understand how environmental factors impact regulation, behavior, and engagement. This expertise informs her ability to help organizations identify sensory barriers and create environments that support focus, calm, and participation.

Experience & Approach

In addition to her classroom experience, Sherri has extensive experience training and supporting teachers and parents, helping them better understand neurodivergence and implement practical strategies that work in real-world environments.

Her work goes beyond individual support.

Sherri focuses on helping organizations examine the systems, environments, and expectations that impact behavior, learning, and participation.

By combining her background in special education with human-centered and sensory-informed approaches, she helps teams move from reactive problem-solving to proactive, inclusive design.

A Dual Perspective

As both an educator and the parent of a neurodivergent child, Sherri brings a unique and deeply informed perspective to her work.

She understands not only the professional side of supporting diverse learners, but also the lived experience of navigating systems that are not always designed with neurodivergent individuals in mind.

This dual perspective allows her to connect with educators, families, and organizations in a way that is both practical and meaningful.

Why This Work Matters

Too often, the responsibility to “fit in” is placed entirely on neurodivergent individuals.

Sherri believes that true inclusion requires a shared responsibility—where environments, systems, and communities are designed to support diverse ways of thinking, learning, and interacting.

Her work helps organizations shift from:

• managing behavior → understanding regulation
• reacting to challenges → designing supportive environments
• expecting individuals to adapt → building systems that include

The P.E.A.C.E. Framework

Sherri is the creator of the P.E.A.C.E. Framework, a model used to evaluate and strengthen environments that serve diverse learners and participants.

Through this framework, she helps organizations focus on:

• Presence (psychological safety)
• Equity (accessible, sensory-aware environments)
• Agency (voice and choice)
• Community (connection and co-regulation)
• Empowerment (sustainable systems)
