Your child is having a hard time learning or has significant behavioral issues. Perhaps excessive worry, obsessive fixations, past trauma or deep sadness prevent her from making friends, going to school or enjoying life. Or his moods & thoughts can be strange & disruptive. Or their social & emotional development appear off. You're very concerned but not sure where to start or what to do. You have tried to understand & adjust your parenting to attempt to help. Or you may have taken him to therapist/s or doctor/s & tried various treatments, but he continues to struggle & something is still missing.
Together, we can sort out what your child is going through & come up with ways to make their life easier & more in line with development. We carry out a responsive plan that may include careful medication use, oversight & adjustment, combined with emotional, social & educational supports. I can collaborate with her therapist, if she has one.
A parent myself, I strive to offer my knowledge & professional experience in using medication wisely as well as empathy, fun & family involvement. I'd love to see your child grow through challenges & work towards self-actualization, as you yourself gain in understanding. If you value thoughtful & warm medical care, reach out to me. Thank you.
