Dr John Carosso

Psychologist

“I work as a Child Psychologist with 30 years experience specializing in autism, ADHD, behavioral challenges, anxiety, and depression.”

About Me

As a Child Psychologist with 30 years’ experience, I support children facing autism, ADHD, and behavioural challenges. I also help with anxiety and depression. My approach creates a supportive space for exploring feelings. We develop practical coping tools together. This deep experience ensures I understand young people’s unique struggles. I guide them towards confidence and well-being.

Approach

My sessions move from gentle assessment into hands-on steps, blending predictable structure with room for play or talk so each young person’s pace feels respected. I see children and adolescents in Monroeville, Pennsylvania and online, working in English with families and schools when helpful. Sessions often include short, practiceable tasks we try between meetings, clear feedback for parents, and space for the child to lead when they can; progress is tracked in small, measurable changes. This way of working suits families seeking steady, practical growth.
