Ms. Lorna Hayim-Baker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, "R"LCSW
I took a course in early childhood development; and I have come to realize that the teens/young adults are like "babies bringing babies into this world" and they are ill prepared to be mothers and fathers. The victim is the child as he is often born into a culture of poverty and kids hate being poor.
I am the mother of three grown children and I always went to the best professionals when having doubts about how to raise any one of my 3 children. It is one thing to read about effective parenting and it is another to actually have lived through raising three children who turned out to be good parents themselves and are loving spouses while they remain loving children to their parents and and they not only have great friends, but they also have a great work ethic. I am a proud mother of three adult children.

If you are seeking help at this time in your life, you are already on the road to emotional health. It is the most positive first step you can take toward changing a difficult situation.

Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I specialize in partnering with parents, caregivers, nannies, and educators to develop customized strategies that promote success both at home and in school. Recognizing the critical role families play in fostering growth and well-being, I emphasize collaboration, open communication, and shared decision-making to create individualized plans that address each child’s unique needs.
In addition to offering general parenting guidance, I provide evidence-based parent training programs, such as Parent Management Training (PMT) to learn effective strategies to reduce behavioral challenges and support positive change for your child, RUBI Parent Training to help manage behavioral challenges and support developmental progress for autistic children, and SPACE to help parents reduce your child’s anxiety by changing how you respond. My approach empowers families with practical tools and strategies to address a wide range of concerns related to autism, ADHD, and other developmental disabilities. Whether navigating challenging behaviors, improving daily routines, or enhancing social-emotional skills, my goal is to strengthen family dynamics and promote positive outcomes.
I also offer family therapy to help improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen relationships within the household. By addressing family dynamics and fostering understanding, my work supports healthier interactions and greater resilience for both children and adults.
Through a compassionate, strengths-based approach, I strive to build strong partnerships that empower parents and caregivers to feel confident and supported every step of the way.

Dr. Sharon Herzog
Psychologist, PsyD
Many of my clients struggle with the emotional demands that come with being a parent. It doesn’t matter if their children are young or fully grown, being a parent is a constant source of fear and love and major focus of one’s emotional well-being.

Yonkers is Westchester County's largest city and one of the most economically and racially diverse communities in the New York metro area — a city where affluent riverfront neighborhoods and post-industrial working-class areas exist in close proximity, generating a broad and complex therapy demand. The city's large Black, Latino, and immigrant communities sit alongside a growing professional population drawn by lower costs than Manhattan, and therapists here work across a wide spectrum of presenting concerns from economic stress and community trauma to corporate burnout and life transitions. St. John's Riverside Hospital and Montefiore Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, while Yonkers's proximity to New York City gives residents access to the broader metro therapy ecosystem. The city's ongoing economic transformation — driven by waterfront development — has created gentrification-related tensions that increasingly find their way into clinical work.
