Chatterpillars is excited to announce the addition of Dr. Pepe Santana, Ph.D., to our skilled therapy team. Dr. Santana is a clinical psychologist with extensive experience working with all age groups and a wide variety of psychological issues.
Psychotherapy can be a valuable tool for families struggling with ASD and will now be available for higher functioning ASD children, as well as for parents and family members. These services include grief counseling, improvement of coping and communication skills, couples counseling, group therapy and support groups.
Assessment and evaluation is also a part of the services Dr. Santana provides. These include diagnostic assessments to determine the presence and nature of a disorder, intellectual assessments to measure the various domains of your child's intellectual functioning, and psychological assessments to identify psychological issues and characteristics.
