10 sessions guidance
from Ruth Perednik

10-hour long sessions one-on-one, with psychologist Ruth Perednik, who will guide parents, teachers, keyworkers, and sometimes the child or teen, so that these significant adults can acquire and implement understanding and strategies to help the child/teen progress and speak more freely with peers and adults.

Intensive one-week treatment
in your home and school

A 6-day intensive intervention with psychologist Ruth Perednik, or with one of her team of therapists, in which she will initially help your child speak to her, and then enable her/him to talk in school, or wherever, and with whoever she/he is selectively silent. She will work with parents, teachers and the child/teen, teaching all strategies and tools, and hopefully moving your child to freer communication and lower anxiety.
