What are Child Behavior Problems?
Many disorders are diagnosed during childhood. In addition to the distress and impaired functioning experienced by adults, children are at particular risk of developing comorbid disorders during critical periods of development. Many aspects of behavior, including effective social skills, organizational skills, self-schema, and body image are largely established at early ages of development.
Therefore, it is of great importance that accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment occur as soon as possible. In addition, it is always important to ensure that parents and other family members are involved as they often experience anxiety and other aversive experiences out of their concern for the behaviorally challenged child.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I have a particular interest in working with children and adolescents as they navigate the often complex and evolving process of identity development. Adolescence is a time of profound change—emotionally, socially, and psychologically—and many young people struggle to make sense of who they are and where they belong.
I bring a specialized focus to working with adoptees and donor-conceived children and teens, who may face unique questions around identity, origin, and connection. These experiences can shape how young people understand themselves and their relationships in ways that are not always visible from the outside.
My approach is thoughtful, developmentally informed, and grounded in creating a space where young people feel safe to explore these questions openly. I also work closely with parents to help them better understand and support their child’s experience, strengthening communication and connection within the family as a whole.

Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
For many children and adolescents , wanting to feel like they're being heard and listened to is critical to changing negative behaviors. Often-times, despite their parent's best intentions, a third party is needed. Being an objective voice for these kids is often all that is needed. I'm able to help them bridge the communication gap they are feeling with their parents and sometimes, that is enough for significant change to start.
