Direct Services
Developmentally, children may not always have the language to articulate the various emotions they experience. From a behavioral perspective, they often act out what they experience internally. Learning about the function of behavior can help us, adults, understand the best ways to address our child's needs.
Dr. Wheldon has experience providing psychological assessments and direct therapy for children. She has served as a school counselor for St. Joachim Catholic School and worked with the Attention Learning Center in Orange County, CA.
