When parents and children need to communicate it is important for a licensed psychotherapist to be present in the room. When the parent is involved in a therapeutic session they are able to rate its effectiveness. In doing so, this begins the process to overcome problematic behavior. What better time to do this than now, before it becomes the dysfunctional activity of an adult.
The first goal is to ensure that your child is treating you with respect and proper attitude. The second is school-related - academics, behavior, daily routine, etc. Thirdly there is social responsibility. We are all members of a social group. How is your child contributing to family? In a session you are asked to rate your child from one to five to get a handle on where you stand.
This type of therapy shapes the rest of your child’s life. To begin this important journey, call Doctor Steven Sussman. Doctor Sussman is a licensed child psychotherapist serving New York City and Northern New Jersey. Dr. Sussman has offices in Union County New Jersey and Staten Island New York. Make an appointment for you and your child today by calling (908) 217 8106.
