Dr. Gutierrez was referred to us from this PTO website and other friends. She was able to diagnose and use a genetic test to find the right ADHD med for my child. She didn't "milk" us for multiple office visits. My child also has anxiety and social problems that Dr. Gutierrez also quickly noted and gives her coping skills. She talks to me afterward and makes me realize that as frustrated as I get with the ADHD, my child can still be a successful, happy person. Our lives changed greatly with the ADHD meds, after years of talk therapy thinking this was all an anxiety issue.

Dr. Myers is great at complicated ADHD cases. Our child also has ODD and anxiety. She's able to manage across all issues and help us navigate appropriate IEP accommodations.
Age 7-My son started seeing Cheryl at Kid Matters when he was 7 because he was struggling with emotional regulation and hated school. He was eventually diagnosed with ADHD and Cheryl was very helpful with establishing a 594 plan with the school. My son is now 9 and LOVES school and has improved so much with handling his “big feelings”. He has come a long way and I am forever grateful for this place.
Ms. Renaldi has provided reading & writing tutoring for my child since 1st grade. My child is dyslexic and has ADHD. Provides a nurturing, confidence building atmosphere suitable for all ages. Has gone above and beyond normal tutoring responsibilities by attending IEP meetings to provide support and supplemental information to school district.
Dr. Baird was very helpful in getting to the bottom of my son's issues, which turned out to be ADD and anxiety. He was especially helpful to me as I pulled my hair out in response to my son's behavior, which was starting to include school avoidance.
Age 6. Susie sees children of all ages and specializes in speech, language and feeding issues. OT and PT services are also provided

Our daughter's mild anxiety became severe during the pandemic. Dr. A was kind, patient and had a wonderful rapport with her (much to our surprise, as she can be a very tough customer!). He didn't automatically prescribe medication as some psychiatrists do, but left it open as a possibility if we felt it had come to that point. He discussed options with us including CBT, immersive therapy and medications (even non-psychotropics that can alleviate physical symptoms of panic attacks). We ended up trying Neurofeedback therapy before trying medication, and Dr. A was supportive of that approach despite the fact that it is not a traditionally recognized or well-known treatment for anxiety. Overall, he really seemed to care about our daughter and our family, at a time when we felt as though there was little. hope. Highly recommend Dr. A!!

We followed most of program but not every aspect. There was improvement when they said there would be but this takes MONTHS. It is not a quick fix. If you decide to try conventional psych meds please consider doing DNA testing FIRST (GeneSight) because it will list which meds may work and which are likely to present side effects! I wish someone had given us this advice! It is well worth the cost.

Age 9 -Our daughter was 9 going on 10 when we began neurofeedback therapy to treat her anxiety - it was the last step we were taking after CBT didn't work, but before we turned to medication. After 3 weeks of therapy sessions (30 minutes, 2x per day), we saw huge positive changes. She was less anxious and able to do and enjoy things that she hadn't been able in the previous 6-9 months. Simple things like going to school, friends' houses and after school activities were no longer fraught with sometimes crippling anxiety or severe panic attacks. To our surprise, the oppositional behavior that we just assumed was part of her personality improved greatly too, as if a switch had been hit. She was happier, less anxious, more carefree and so much more agreeable shortly after beginning treatment. After 3 months of neurofeedback sessions, her level of anxiety is at a manageable, if not "normal" level, and our entire family is happier and getting along so much better (especially mom and daughter). Sessions are not covered by insurance, which is a shame, but it's the best money we've ever spent.

My child was having multiple issues with anxiety and depression and was barely making it to school and her grades and mood tanked. Every other therapist or doctor we took her to just saw her anxiety and depression and tried to treat that. The medications she was put on made everything even worse. We brought her to Dr. Bernardino as a last ditch effort before partial hospitalizaion. Dr. B diagnosed her for the underlying disorder causing the anxiety and depression and, with the correct medication, she turned around immediately and everything started getting better. Dr. B is expensive and does not take insurance but the wait to get into a child/adolescent psychiatrist is 2 months minimum everywhere else and we needed immediate help. I think my child would still be struggling right now if I hadn't decided to contact Dr. B. I hope she is able to help your child as well if you decide to call her.

Our daughter is a good student but the pandemic really set her back and she was having a hard time dealing with her academic work this. She was so stressed every day about school and she struggled to stay motivated. She worked with Alexis at Elevate Counseling g who taught her several methods of organizing and staying calm. She loves working with her and we are really pleased with the outcome.

Dr. Mike assessed and treated our son following a concussion. What seemed like a minor concussion to start, actually impacted his limbic system impacting his sleep patterns, mood, balance and eye tracking. He had significant issues with insomnia, anxiety and depression. All of the treatment was covered by BCBS, with the exception of the assessment ($500). Was worth every penny as we were desperate to help our son regain his quality of life.
