Allissa Clark

Educational Diagnostician | Learning Advocate | Founder of Opportunity Consulting

Allissa Clark is an educational diagnostician on a mission to help families and schools truly see their learners. As the founder of Opportunity Consulting, Allissa brings a vibrant, student-centered approach to evaluations—turning complex data into clear stories about how kids learn, thrive, and grow.

With over a decade of experience across public schools, higher education, and private practice, Allissa has become known for her rare ability to blend deep diagnostic expertise with warmth, humor, and a genuine passion for empowering families. She specializes in supporting multilingual learners, twice-exceptional students, and children whose strengths often get overlooked in traditional systems.

Allissa is also a powerful advocate for more equitable identification practices in Texas. She partners with districts, mentors new educators, and collaborates with organizations that push the field forward. Whether she’s breaking down cognitive scores for a parent or coaching a team through intervention strategies, Allissa makes the process feel human, hopeful, and full of possibility.

At the heart of her work is a belief that every learner has a story worth telling—and when we understand that story, we unlock opportunities that can change a child’s life.
