It doesn’t matter if you are looking for your young child or your teen, finding the right help is never easy. It is doubly difficult when your child struggles socially. Anyone can claim to help kids make friends and maintain relationships, but few have the appropriate training and experience. We have both. My therapists are all board certified, and specialize in pragmatic language (social skills). That is part of the reason why the Where I Can Be Me® program has the reputation for being “the place where great kids make good friends.” It is also why it is the longest running program of its kind in Westchester. In this section you will discover some of the different ways we can help you and your child.

That’s exactly the type of environment we provide in our social skills groups. Children in the program are grouped together based on who they can learn the most from, and who…
Bully Prevention Services
If your child is being bullied then you know how ineffective, and often counterproductive, anti-bully programs are. They spend a lot of time defining bullying, promoting catchy slogans, and not doing anything to help your child to avoid being bullied. I know this because I have witnessed it firsthand. Kids who struggle socially are very…
