SPONSORED CONTENT BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT SPONSORED CONTENT CHILD & ADOLESCENT CLINICAL ASSOCIATES DEDICATED TO THE PATIENT P sychology has changed over the past three decades, and Child & Adolescent Clinical Associates has changed with it to reflect the times. Led by Clinical Director Dr. Bob Andolina, the practice today is more than just therapy for children and adolescents, although that constituency remains a prime focus. “Clinical Associates is a traditional, face-to-face clinic where therapy is directed with patients not to them,” Dr. Andolina said. “A lot of places miss what therapy’s about. It’s not, ‘Check the box, come in 10 times and you’re cured.’ It’s not just crisis intervention. We’re a results-based therapy practice that’s been here for 35 years and equipped with a team of professionals holding PhD’s, master’s degrees and who are certified in-home workers.” Services include, but are not limited to, child and adolescent psychology, adult, family, and marital therapy. The New Hope outpatient substance abuse program, has a proven, seven-year, 82 percent success rate. Child & Adolescent Clinical Associates focuses on treatment first. “Today, a lot of clinics will just go down a list of humanistic tools that are short-lived. They get the patient feeling good and move on,” Dr. Andolina said. “We focus on underlying dynamics. We treat the syndrome, not the symptoms, and we form an alliance with people that doesn’t just happen by walking into a practice. It’s comprehensive and true therapy.” Child & Adolescent Clinical Associates treats children and adolescents with anxiety, hyperactivity, Asperger’s syndrome, autism and other disorders. Common problems seen in the adult population treated by Child & Adolescent Clinical Associates include depression, anxiety, panic disorder and others. Comprehensive psychological and neuropsychological assessments are additional services offered by Clinical Associates. The professionals there alsoare adept at working hand-in-hand with the court system for custody evaluations, co-parenting issues, conflict resolution and other mental health issues. They are members of the Pennsylvania Psychological Association, American Psychological Association, International Neuropsychological Society and Pennsylvania State Tourette Association. Dr. Andolina, known as “Dr. Bob” to staff, patients, and listeners to his radio show, has taught in Europe and has opened facilities in California and Florida in addition to Allegheny, Butler and Westmoreland counties, and in eastern Pennsylvania. He’s spearheaded the development of several different programs to treat patients and has a proven successful track record, especially in areas of early childhood. Regardless of your problem, Dr. Andolina said the underlying constant at Child & Adolescent Clinical Associates is an unyielding dedication to you as a patient, working at your speed, towards a positive result.
