We are a school psychology and intervention practice dedicated to children, adolescents and their families.
Founded by Lisa Schiavoni, Milestones in the Making has been open and operating in the city of Gainesville since 1985, thanks to an ever-growing and highly valued group of referring specialists, in addition to word-of-mouth referrals, which we consider to be the most flattering of compliments.
Milestones in the Making’s management team is going through a transition as Lisa prepares for a well-deserved retirement following many years of service. Licensed School Psychologist Yulia Tamayo, who has been working with Lisa since early 2016, now faces the welcomed challenge of leading Milestones in the Making to new chapters.
As part of this transition and into the foreseeable future, Milestones in the Making will maintain a close relationship with Lisa Schiavoni as consultant and part-time associate. We are excited about Lisa’s ability to stay on our team. Her leadership is crucial in ensuring the future of Milestones in the Making and the services we provide to the children and families of our community.
