Normal Findings:  Often a child's "problem" falls in the normal range for his or her development. In this case no treatment would be recommended but parents are offered assistance, guidance and education for positive outcomes.      


Psycho/Social Therapy:  Problems with emotional, behavioral and social functioning usually warrants therapeutic intervention. We utilize different approaches for reshaping behavior and developing skills that are lacking These include; behavior management, thought restructuring, parenting and social skill training.    


Cognitive Training/Coaching:  Many children benefit from neurofeedback training and other brain based programs for improving their memory, attention auditory and visual processing and mental processing speed. Coaching helps develop the needed tools, techniques, strategies and interventions for dealing with the practical matters of time management, organizational skills and other functional difficulties.


Medical Consultation:  If medical intervention is warranted we make the necessary referral, working closely with your physician in making the right decision.


School Consultation:A comprehensive evaluation is the only way to identify a learning or developmental disorder. Discovering how your child learns best and what obstacles exist that block success provides vital information for teachers.  We are available to meet with teachers to bridge the gap in communication that can occur between home and school.

Accommodations:  Your child may qualify for modifications in academic requirements or special education services such as an IEP (Individual Education Plan), extended time on FCATS & SAT's or other accommodations in the classroom to make learning easier.
