- Antonia f.
Amazing psychologist. My daughter witnessed her father being physically, verbally and emotionally abusive towards me and was affected in the worst possible way you can imagine for a 2 and 1/2 year old toddler. When we first started seeing Dr. Kay, she was very withdrawn and scared of males in general. WE have been seeing Dr.Kay for a year and half now and my now 4 year old sweet baby girl has blossomed into a wonderful, outgoing, unafraid child. He has worked miracles and displayed an impressive tolerance and patience towards her during therapy. She loves Dr. Kay and trusts him which in return has taught her to trust the male figures in the family and even started trusting her own father during visitation. I recommend Dr. Kay to toddler, child, or adolescent struggling with emotional and behavioral difficulties. He is wonderful and really earns your trust.
