At SAGE Speech & Learning Associates, we believe in a team-based approach and work hard to create a support team around each client. We partner with pediatricians, occupational therapists, psychologists, pediatric dentists and more to ensure that each child gets the most effective therapy for that child and that parents and families get the support they need. Part of this model includes meeting and collaborating with both established, and up-and-coming professionals, in Atlanta. Recently, our Founding therapist Saren Schapiro, had the good fortune of meeting Dr. Amy Todey. Dr. Todey currently practices with an excellent group here in Atlanta (Peachtree Psychological Associates) and boasts a very impressive resume and education. SAGE is proud to welcome her into our group of trusted professionals! In this blog, Dr. Todey addresses many questions common among families seeking a child psychology professional opinion.
