October is National Bullying Prevention Month. School bullying is a serious issue that has been shown to have detrimental effects on our youth. The National Center for Educational Statistics (2019) found that one out of every five students has reported being bullied. Children and teens who experience bullying are at a greater risk for depression, anxiety, and poor academic performance.
Children and teens who perpetrate bullying are at an increased risk for mental health and behavioral health difficulties. If your child or teen has been involved in bullying, please call us. We have licensed therapists who specialize in the treatment of children, adolescents, and families. Persoma Counseling Associates welcomes our new interns, Tricia Shepherd and Meg Thornbury!

About Us
Report
In 1985, four psychologists developed a partnership, to provide outpatient psychological services. For the sake of confidentiality, a name was selected that didn't reveal who we were but was not difficult to remember. PERSOMA continued as a four-person partnership until 1990, when two of the four partners left and the remaining two formed the professional corporation, PERSOMA P.C.
Psychiatry
Report
Our board certified practitioners provide both medication consultation and ongoing management within the context of the total treatment received at PERSOMA. Our psychiatrist sees children, adolescents and adults and our CRNPs see adolescents and adults. Our practitioners will provide treatment for multiple diagnoses and treatment situations.
ADHD Specialty Program
Report
PERSOMA is pleased to announce that we will now be offering comprehensive Adult ADHD evaluations and treatment. Adult ADHD is not a new diagnosis (as many adults who have struggled for most of their life know) but it is relatively newly accepted in the treatment world. The first step in determining if an individual is struggling with a diagnosis of ADHD is to complete a thorough and comprehensive evaluation.
Coaching
Report
This service can be useful at all levels of management from the CEO to the front line supervisor. You are promoted into a supervisory/management position with little or no prior leadership training nor preparation for the circumstances that you inherit. An independent, objective approach is needed to address internal issues and develop leadership strategies for improvement.
