About Jeff M Bauman
As one of South Florida's most senior psychologists, Dr. Bauman brings a wealth of training and experience to his consults. Self care and senior status have led to a completely VIRTUAL Tele-Health practice going forward. Many appreciate the convenience. Early research appears to support Tele-Health effectiveness. For decades, families have visited us from all over South Florida and even from other nations. Virtual visits will make things more convenient and safe for all, whether you live in Weston, Parkland, Boca Raton, Key Biscayne, Palm Beach, Plantation, Cooper City, Southwest Ranches, Davie, Pembroke Pines, Palm Beach, or from wherever you hail.
Experience over decades with thousands of families, along with a unique approach using positive psychology, behavior modification, mind/body strategies, and insights learned from lifestyle medicine, seems well suited for helping with ANXIETY, STRESS, SCHOOL BASED CHALLENGES, inluding ADHD/LD, and GENERAL LIFE ADJUSTMENT. At this time, we are only accepting new patients that closely meet these areas of focus and are appropriate for Dr. Bauman's final months in practice.

Frequently Asked Questions
A mental health professional (such as a pediatric psychologist) can help concerns around anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, ADHD, behavioral challenges, OCD, grief/loss.
This happens. The results of the school’s evaluation may be different than your child’s medical diagnosis. It’s also important to remember that school is NOT the final say on your child’s potential. They may offer very little support to your child, underestimate their abilities, or disagree with you on what support your child needs. You will probably need to advocate for the services and support you believe your child needs.
Here are a few alternative options to consider:
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT): CBT helps by identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It's useful for those dealing with social anxiety or difficulties. CBT addresses cognitive patterns and provides strategies to manage social challenges.
Group therapy: Group therapy offers a supportive space where individuals can practice social skills. They can feedback from peers and a therapist. It allows interaction with others who understand and learn from each other.
Play-based interventions: Play therapy or play-based interventions work well for younger children or those who learn through experiences. Play activities target specific social skills like turn-taking and problem-solving in a safe and engaging setting.
Even if a provider offers parent training, it may look different from one provider to another. For example, an in-home provider might conduct a parent training session directly following a therapy session with your child to help explain what they’ve been working on with your child. At larger organizations, you might have a support group of families who are dealing with similar issues.
