I believe children and parents can have a happy time together. All children as they grow and all parents as they go through parenting encounter kinks in their development. I like to help children and adolescents learn to listen to and express their feelings directly and to help parents learn how to listen and communicate better with their children. With over 25 years of experience working individually with children and parents, in play group therapy and in parenting groups, I know how to use the strengths of each, child and parent, to promote better understanding of themselves and each other. If you are wondering how to smooth the bumps in the road with your pre-school, school age or adolescent child, please give me a call. I have a fully equipped playroom for a child to explore, and a comfortable and spacious consulting room in which older children and adults can talk. My office is located a block from the Planetarium on the Upper West Side in the ground floor of a lovely brownstone. A preliminary consultation will help us determine what path would be best for you and your family.
