Dr. Geller's Guiding Philosophy:



" I believe that each and every child has the capacity to lead a happy, fulfilling life.  However, some children might need a bit more assistance in finding their path.  It is our responsibility as caring adults to ensure that children are given the opportunity to thrive.  

 

I view  every child as a unique individual. I make it my personal goal to help them and those surrounding them find the path that bests meets their needs.  

 

Each path looks different.  Each child has a different history.  Each child operates within a different environment.  Each child has a different story to tell.

 

Therefore I do not take any shortcuts.  Regardless of the child's past, we can work together to brighten his or her future.
