In
addition to my private practice, I also work 2 days a week on contract with the
State of Delaware's Child Development Watch which is an agency serving the
needs of children, ages 0-3, (and their families) who have either a
developmental delay or some established medical condition. I supervise
positive behavioral support plans with the State Department of Mental
Retardation. Finally, I provide psychological services for the
Rehabilitation Unit of Milford Memorial Hospital which serves people recovering
from trauma, heart attack, stroke, surgery, etc. I
formerly worked for the local branch of SOAR, Inc. (Survivors of Abuse in
Recovery), so I am very familiar with issues of emotional neglect and various
kinds of abuse. In my 20's, I worked for the State of Kansas with
families on welfare, and then with children who had emotional disturbance and
their families. Later, I worked for Lutheran Social Services placing
children with special needs into adoptive homes. |
