Raising Socially Competent Children with Mary Reilly

As parents, a lot of anxiety can come from concerns around the social skills of our children. Whether it's the child showing signs of Autism Spectrum Disorder, social anxiety, or simply delayed social skill development - not to mention the added complexity of the global pandemic and how it has changed our social interactions - it's easy to feel lost and frustrated. Fortunately for us, Mary Reilly has stepped in to share her experience and guidance on these topics and more. At the Housson Center, she regularly conducts Developmental and Psychoeducational Evaluations, assessments used to identify Autism Spectrum Disorder and other socio-developmental disorders, individual and family therapy, and parent training for individuals and their families who are struggling behaviorally and emotionally. All of this gives her the perspective and authority to speak into these struggles, helping parents understand and nurture their children - and find joy and reassurance in the process.
