In many situations, it is not necessary for a child to participate in sessions in order to benefit from the expertise of a child clinical psychologist. In fact, many times a single parenting session with one or both parents or caregivers can be very useful. Dr. Spector conducts these sessions in person, via phone, or video conference.

Report
I have been under Dr. Spector's care for nearly 20 years and she has guided me through family and career issues. More recently, she has provided assistance with parenting skills so that I could be a better parent. I feel I am a better person because of the work we have done together.
We currently communicate via a HIPAA compliant app so we can have video sessions, which is so convenient! She makes every effort to accommodate her patients' needs.
Dr. Spector is truly one of the most brilliant, compassionate and genuine human beings I have ever met and cannot recommend her enough.
