Something that makes The Wise Family unique and exceptional is that all of our clinicians come to us with vast and varied experiences in the community; both clinical and school settings. As such, we have been able to develop and maintain relationships with organizations and share helpful resources.
One of my personal favorite resources comes from the Fairfax Early Childhood Partnership. This team is composed of representatives from Fairfax County Public Schools, Fairfax Falls Church Community Services Board, and local early childhood education providers. Each month, the team collaborates to create 5-4-3-2-1 Tips.
Last month’s tips focused on empathy. Here at The Wise Family, we believe that empathy is an essential life skill that continues to develop over time.

“Supporting the mental health of the kids and teens in our community is one of the most challenging and also one of the most important jobs anyone could have. And I see your team doing it with both skill and enthusiasm.Our family could not be more fortunate to have found your practice 3 years ago.
Our kids are growing up but we still keep your number on our phone and we know we can reach out to your team if we need it. We tell everyone who asks about the WISE people at The Wise Family.
Thank you for doing what you do for so many people.”—from the parent of two former clients (siblings)
— Parent of two former clients (siblings)“Thank you so much for all you do and care for me. And all the work you do for my family. I {heart} you.”
— 10-year-old coaching client“I don’t think we could survive our kid without The Wise Family. Our clinician is so patient and such a compassionate person. She helps our child feel so in control of his body, and us so in control of our parenting.”
— Parent of 6 year old client“Dr. Amy talks about moving children from being externally-driven to internally-driven…and she helps you get there!”
