Consultations

Consultation Image

A parent consultation is a meeting in which we discuss your child's needs, behaviors, and progress, and I provide guidance to help you navigate behavioral and communication challenges.

Parent Consultation can address behavioral and academic concerns, create strategies for improvement, and outlines a plan for success. The primary focus is on developing appropriate parenting skills and strategies, specific to your needs.

Testimonials

“We had a very positive experience working with Dr. Acker. The feedback session was especially helpful, and her report was clear, thorough, and easy to understand. Overall, everything about the process felt thoughtful, supportive, and well done.”

- LM

“It’s not easy to find a psychologist who balances empathy with real problem-solving skills. She keeps me focused on making progress instead of, as she says, just “admiring the problem.” Working with her has been a total game changer, and my years of problems with OCD symptoms has improved so much in just a few months”

- Andrew F.

“Can’t say enough about how awesome Dr. Acker was to work with. She completed a very comprehensive and astute evaluation for our teenager - she “got” our son and was thoughtful in her findings. On top of that, she provided a brief summary report that was so helpful to mom and dad!”

- Amanda W.

“Everything about the evaluation process (communication, report, recommendations) was wonderful. I highly recommend working with Dr. Acker.”

- Mr. J

“My last psychologist didn’t really specialize in anxiety, and it felt like we were just talking about it, but I wasn’t actually getting better. My anxiety was starting to really affect my job. Working with her has been completely different—she’s given me real tools and the confidence to actually handle the symptoms and know what to do when they show up. I’ve even shared what I’ve learned from her with my friends, and they all think she’s the best.”

- JS

“Dr. Acker’s professional skills, knowledge, and passion are truly exceptional. She brings a rare combination of clinical expertise and genuine empathy that allows her to connect meaningfully with both adults and adolescents. Dr. Acker has a remarkable ability to build trust quickly with families navigating complex challenges.”

- Mrs. S
