EDUCATIONAL CONSULTING, ADVOCACY & PRIVATE TUTORING
Viola Hendley
Autism Exceptional Needs Specialist
Ms. Vi began with Peace of Mind in 2022 providing private sessions, small group social skills sessions, consultation services, private sessions, parent support, training and advocacy. In December 2024, she reduced her services to include advocacy, family and parent support and consultative sessions only allowing her to continue to pursue her passion for providing autism support services while also spending more time with her family and other community involvements.
A graduate of Francis Marion University, Vi spent 38 years as a consulting teacher and autism specialist for students from kindergarten through the age of 21 in public, community, and residential settings. She holds multi and emotional disability teaching certifications with the SC Department of Education and held National Board Teacher Certification as an exceptional needs specialist for 20 years.
Now retired, Vi and her husband Scott enjoy community service, family, friends, and their loving dogs.
