In 1997, I realized that there was a tremendous need to develop child-friendly and effective techniques for children with behavioral and academic issues. Since then I have devoted myself exclusively to developing such methods because these children often resist conventional therapies. Having taught thousands of other professionals on how best to reach these clients, I continue my mission to serve these clients and their families.

Group Therapy
Report
Many parents and professionals assume individual therapy is superior to group therapy because it focuses exclusively on one client. Children are most familiar and comfortable learning in groups such as school, sports, scouts, etc. Group therapy provides support and the opportunity to learn from others' experiences.
Adolescents
Report
Adolescents are often highly resistant to therapy. That is why I have developed fun "teen-friendly" techniques that utilize humor and entertainment to reach even the most apathetic client. Seeing an adolescent turn around and work productively in school and avoid negative peers is what makes my job "the best one I could ever have!"
Mood Disorders
Report
Nothing is more heart wrenching than a sad and self-critical child. Children diagnosed with mood disorders often have undiagnosed underlying skill deficits that make them feel helpless and hopeless. Empowering them with skills and optimism is one of the most gratifying aspects of my work. Dr. Sussman is a skilled and knowledgeable children anxiety attacks psychologist and academic achievement psychologist.
Bio
Report
I received a Ph. D in clinical psychology in 1979 from an American Psychological Association (APA) approved program (the gold standard). My internship was in a NY State Children's Psychiatric Facility (also APA approved). In addition to my private practice in New Jersey and New York, I have worked and consulted for various child care agencies.
Our Psychology
Report
Children and Adolescents with disruptive behaviors, learning problems, and social issues are overwhelmed due to society's pressure for them to behave and learn like everyone else. These children think and perform differently than their peers. They need an ally who understands their challenges and strives to find innovative strategies to excite and motivate them to succeed.
