What is a Proper Age to Begin Childhood Therapy?

Maybe you have asked “how young is too young?”. It is a question that I have heard so many times over my decades of professional child psychology in the New York/New Jersey area. We both know that it is a big step for your family, and you want to be very careful when you make that decision. I am Dr. Steven Sussman. Together we can make the correct decision for your kid.

Here is an important rule of thumb: the younger your child, the more time that you will probably spend in the room with us. Hopefully, that is comforting. It is no surprise that little kids look to their caregivers to decide how they should think, feel, and act. That inherent connection with a parent is what helps them feel secure.

Let’s get to know each other through a no-obligation, complementary phone call. Again, my name is Dr. Steven Sussman. I am headquartered in Mountainside, NJ and have devoted a lifetime to helping kids in the New York/New Jersey area to become better adults. My phone number is (908) 217-8106. The body of work that I have achieved is found at sussmankids.com.
