Meet Shira

Welcome to High Rise Ed Consulting!

Hi, I’m Shira Klein—an experienced educational counselor with over a decade of experience in secondary education. I love helping students learn to thrive both academically and personally. I’ve guided hundreds of students on their path to academic success and college readiness through personalized, holistic support.

I take the time to understand each student’s unique strengths, challenges, and aspirations. My approach focuses on building a growth mindset, strengthening coping strategies, and developing resilience—empowering students to approach their education confidently and clearly.

Whether your student is working to establish a strong academic foundation, build essential executive functioning and social skills, or navigate the college admissions process, I’m here to guide them every step of the way.

I hold two master’s degrees—Special Education and Educational Counseling—and four educational credentials. Additionally, I’ve earned a Certificate in College Counseling from UCLA Extension and numerous specialized certifications from the American School Counselor Association (ASCA), including:

  • Admissions Specialist

  • Career Development Specialist

  • Legal and Ethical Specialist

  • Students with Special Needs Specialist

  • Anxiety and Stress Management Specialist
