 Children, Teen and Family Services

IN THE NEWS!: JSSA was featured in a February 12 Washington Post news article: "Coping with Report Card Stress."

If your child or teen is having trouble at school, with relationships, or adjusting to a new or challenging family situation, JSSA is here.

A little extra help in coping may be needed, or perhaps there is a deeper problem - emotional, psychological, physical or medical - that calls for our specialized approach. 

Sometimes a special need such as a developmental delay, a learning disability, autism or autistic-like behavior may be at the root of a child’s difficulties, requiring our comprehensive and unique expertise.

Our professional and compassionate staff of clinical social workers, therapists, psychologists, neuropsychologists and psychiatrists provide a wide array of mental health evaluation and treatment services for young children, adolescents and families.
