The San Francisco Bay Area is a very unique place: We thrive on the good weather and we have easy access to a variety of outdoor activities. Silicon Valley is home to many of the largest technology corporations as well as home to innumerable creative start-ups. The people who live here are intelligent, athletic and have the innovation skills to influence the lives of people around the world.
There are many unique pressures and demands when it comes to raising our children in the Silicon Valley. Our youth are expected to excel academically, speak more than one language, play a musical instrument or two, participate in organized team sports and volunteer their time to those in need. And this is just the basic expectation. In this fast-paced area, there are an infinite amount of possibilities and options for our children.
We want the best for our children. We want them to have opportunities in their happy adult lives.
Sometimes, there are other factors that may challenge a child's ability to succeed. Biological factors such as health conditions, medical injuries and genetic syndromes may contribute to a child's difficulties in their daily functioning. Psychological factors such as depression, anxiety and learning differences may interfere with a child's ability to perform. Social factors such as family disruption, financial stress or educational limitations may challenge a child's ability to stay motivated and persistent.
An evaluation by Dr. Tsou will help to identify your child's unique thinking skills, behaviors and emotional functioning. With this information, specific interventions may be designed to enhance your child's strengths while other interventions and accommodations may help to address your child's areas of improvement. After receiving the results of the evaluation, many parents have reported feeling empowered to make more informed decisions about how to support their child's growth and developmental needs. Information is a very powerful tool.
Please contact Dr. Tsou at (650) 380-5998 or drtsou@amytsou.com to discuss strategies that will optimally support your child's development.
