Groups
Psychoeducation for Preschool Teachers
This "group" is a series of presentations geared toward preschool and early-childhood teachers and professionals. I will present a psychological and developmental perspective on a topic relevant to the work of preschool teachers, with time allowed for question/answer and individual case discussions with participants. Length of the presentation is flexible, based on the needs of the school. Past topics have included "Identifying and Accommodating Children with Special Needs in the Regular Preschool Classroom" and "Sensory Processing in Early Childhood, an Introduction." I can also develop new presentations, based on the current needs of the staff at your preschool.

Education/Support for Parents of Preschoolers
This "group" is a series of presentations geared toward the parents of preschool-age children. I present these topics largely in an informal, question-and-answer format ("Ask the School Psychologist;" "Ask Dr. Jenny"). Sessions are usually timed to coincide with drop-off time at the school, and parents are welcome to bring younger siblings. Past topics have included "Ages and Stages: How Children Grow and Change through Preschool;" "Kindergarten Readiness: A Social-Emotional Perspective;" and "Ethical Kids: Helping Children Learn to do the Right Thing." I am also available to develop new subjects, as requested by parents and teachers.
