Testimonials

“Jamie Perillo is an extremely kind and devoted therapist. I have a 13 year old who had some anxieties and meeting Jamie was the best thing that happened to my family. It was the perfect fit for all of us. She not only helped him deal with the issues we initially came to see her for, but she has taught my child some terrific life-long strategies. Although, we don’t see her on a regular basis right now, she is always there for us, as I can and do call her periodically. Thank you Jamie for helping restore peace in our family.” ~ Parent of 13 year old.

“The girls felt safe and comfortable which speaks to Jamie’s skills working with kids. They always had fun and continue to use the strategies and resources they were given (breathing techniques, worry boxes, shredding paper). Thank you for being such a wonderful resource. We hope we can continue our work with you!” ~ Parent

“My six year old son found Jamie approachable and warm. He loved the hands -on activities she used to begin discussions which she uses to get conversations about feelings rolling” ~ Parent of 6 year old.

“Jamie’s expertise and creativity benefited all the children in the (Food Allergy) support group. She has a calm, nurturing rapport with children who are put at ease when they work with her. My children developed some great coping skills as a result of their participation in the group.” ~ Parent

“Jamie works very well with children. She gets down on their level (literally on the floor) and uses fun techniques such as role playing, drawing, yoga, and much more. My son truly enjoys going to see Jamie and is always looking forward to it – that says a lot!” ~ Parent

“I cannot recommend Jamie Perillo and the children’s support group program highly enough. My daughter was excited to come her sessions each month. I feel she found a secure place to express her feelings surrounded by others who truly understand her point of view. To be in a room with other children with food allergies, I think was empowering for her. Each session, she came away with concrete strategies to use to help her to become a more confident advocate for herself and to better express her thoughts and feelings. I am thrilled with the children’s program and hope to see it expand in the coming years. Thank you Jamie!!!” ~ Parent
