Our mission is to provide personalized support and resources that facilitate smooth transitions to adulthood. We empower people from all walks of life to achieve meaningful goals in education, employment, healthy relationships, and independent living.
Celo Learning delivers PEERS®, an evidence-based social skills curriculum developed by the UCLA PEERS® Clinic and trusted by families and clinicians worldwide.
The program is taught by Education Specialist Kathleen O’Halloran, a Certified PEERS® for Young Adults Provider trained by UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior. Ms. O'Halloran provides individualized instruction in the 16-week curriculum, specializing in universal access for exceptional learners who benefit from structured support and intentional pacing before or alongside group participation, including individuals with neurodevelopmental differences, learning disabilities, health impairments, and complex learning profiles.
Through one-to-one implementation, clients engage in structured practice and coaching to build confidence, social fluency, and readiness for academic, workplace, and community environments. Each client is met where they are and guided toward greater independence, meaningful connection, and long-term success.
In addition to PEERS®, Celo Learning provides Post-Secondary Transition Services including transition assessment and person-centered planning for transition-aged youth and young adults seeking strengths-based guidance in post-secondary education, employment, and independent living.
Launched in 2022, our Individualized Transition Planning (ITP) program continues annually each summer as part of Celo Learning’s sustained commitment to comprehensive, interest-driven, transition support. The program emphasizes executive functioning, self-advocacy, career exploration, and real-world readiness. Participants engage in a structured progression of summer learning experiences culminating in a personalized capstone project.
Many clients are referred by families, educators, therapists, schools, and community partners. If someone shared Celo Learning with you, it is because they believe we can help.
We invite you to contact us to share your story and schedule a complimentary video consultation to determine whether working together is an appropriate fit for your goals.

When appropriate, families may also be connected to trusted community partners to support comprehensive care.

Families interested in participating in a clinical PEERS® group program at the UCLA PEERS® Clinic, may be eligible to have those clinical services billed through private insurance. The UCLA PEERS® Clinic is an outpatient hospital-based program that includes parent and caregiver participation alongside social skills training for individuals across the lifespan with autism spectrum disorder, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depression, anxiety, and other social impairments. Groups take place at the Semel Institute/NPI, 760 Westwood Plaza, Los Angeles, CA 90024, US. Young adults participating must have a consistent social coach (parent, caregiver, or support person) who is willing to attend the program each week.
