Hello! My name is Cherene Comick, M.Ed, and I am the owner and founder of Joy in Learning.
I became a NILD Educational Therapist in 1994. I’ve worked as an Exceptional Education Director in a private school for 23 years and counting, planning programs for students with special needs.
When I moved to Fayetteville, NC to be closer to my grandchildren, I decided to share my professional expertise with the Cumberland County community. I’m also a proud member of the Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce, committed to staying connected and contributing to the local families I serve.
​​​
I absolutely love what I do! I love helping students reach their full potential by using evidence-based best practices tailored to their unique learning needs.
​
If you think there is no hope for your child in school, meet with me first — and let me help unlock your child’s true capabilities.

Meet your Certified NILD Educational Therapist!
I’m Alise McCain, M.Ed, and I am happy to be working with Cherene at Joy in Learning Discovery Center.
I am passionate about helping students grow in skill and confidence. I have a special interest in helping older students who have progressed through their school years yet have recently discovered that they have dyslexia, processing issues, or ADHD.
NILD educational therapy uses a variety of techniques to build focus, improve reading skills, and develop clear and efficient thinking. Our brains can change, grow, and develop new pathways. This is so exciting to me! There is hope for every single person to improve their cognitive skills.
I hold a master’s degree in educational therapy, and I am a licensed teacher with a degree in English Education. I am a licensed NILD educational therapist, and I am certified by the International Dyslexia Association as a Structured Literacy Dyslexia Specialist. I homeschooled my three children for 20 years and loved the homeschooling lifestyle. On a personal note, I love cats and enjoy flower gardening.
I am happy to be working with Cherene at Joy in Learning Discovery Center, and I look forward to helping your student succeed!
