Infant
A mother’s successful pregnancy and birth depends heavily on her mental health and level of stress during the prenatal (pre-birth) period. Fathers are instrumental in assisting their partners in sustaining a happy pregnancy and delivery process. An infant is life’s most precious miracles. The first smile, first words, first steps are unforgettable indicators of growth and appropriate emotional development. Unfortunately the infant is sometimes exposed to certain stressors (family, medical, social, environmental…) that can impair healthy development. JNG Clinicians are competent with the use of Infant Mental Health strategies to include Dyadic Developmental Therapy and Family Therapy to help the infant and toddler enhance his/her emotional health.

The Child
We want our children to be joyful, playful, and growing healthily. Unfortunately, emotional difficulties can prevent them from being the best they can be. Experiences such as death of a loved one, divorce, separation from a loved one, adoption, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, neglect, physical abuse, exposure to domestic violence, physical injury, and diagnosis with a severe medical problem can really impact the child’s mental health. Other childhood problems include ADHD, Oppositional Defiance and Conduct. Negative peer interactions tend to emerge at this time.
