Who We Are
Our NeuroLogic® team is made up of strong individuals with diverse professional backgrounds in the areas of education, social work, and counseling. Combining their prior academic and vocational experiences with NeuroLogic’s® trauma-informed approach allows us to provide training, coaching, and consulting that is unparalleled.
NeuroLogic® by Lakeside was born out of a collaboration between Josh MacNeill and Kathy Van Horn. They discovered quickly that Kathy’s knowledge as a Licensed Psychologist and experience as an administrator combined with Josh’s real-life examples of being in the classroom created a perspective that many people could connect with.
