Insurance Governs our Health Care Decisions.

It is in the news all too often these days…the type and amount of insurance we carry to meet certain medical needs dictates the level of care we may receive.  This ranges from dental care to health care for the ones we love.  You would never intentionally skimp on something for your kids…you would do without for yourself first.

A young family often has to make uncomfortable choices when it comes to their children’s physical and mental well-being.  Some children may need psychiatry, occupational therapy, speech therapy, etc.  How can a young family on a limited income afford all of this important care and more?

Dr. Steven Sussman a noted child psychologist serving the Staten Island and Mountainside New Jersey area believes that you have a right to use your insurance to cover the vast majority of his professional services.  Put your mind at ease and call Dr. Sussman for a consultation in his New York or New Jersey office.  Two locations…one number (908) 217-8106.

The Fine Line Between Brash and Bold.

Indeed, there is!  When someone is brash they tend to be rude, noisy, and overbearing (that IS the dictionary definition).  When they are bold, they are courageous and confident.  Which personality trait would you most enjoy seeing from your child?  That answer is easy…achieving it may not be.

Building confidence in your child without them becoming a bully is extraordinarily important in their formative years.  Here are a few tips –

1.  Step back when you see your child take harmless risks.
2.  Don’t overpraise.  It may do more harm than good.
3.  Encourage them to help around the house.
4.  Let them know that you love them no matter what.
5.  Give them goals that are attainable.

Doling out just the right amount of praise and discipline is like walking a tightrope.  There is help available in our area.  He is Dr. Steven Sussman.  Dr. Sussman is a renowned child psychologist in New York and New Jersey who helps build self-esteem.  Why not arrange a meeting at his Staten Island or Mountainside office by calling (908) 217-8106?
