Program
Children do well if they can. This simple statement underlies the philosophy of the H.O.Y.A. clinic. It is our feeling that there is no such thing as a "bad" child. Further, children are not simply unmotivated. Rather, there are different "pathways" that lead children to have emotional or behavioral difficulties. The work of H.O.Y.A. clinicians is to identify what is causing the child to have difficulty and then help the child and family determine more beneficial means of dealing with these pathways.

Neal Horen, Ph.D. is the director of the clinic and has done individual, family and group therapy in private practice in Tampa, Baltimore and the District of Columbia. His focus has been the social-emotional development of young children, and he has extensive experience working with children with explosive behavior. Neuropsychological, Social-emotional and Learning Disability evalautions are also offered through the HOYA clinic. Evaluations are conducted on Fridays and include school visits, consultations with school staff and other professionals involved with the family, as well as a comprehensive report and feedback sessoiin with the child and family.
An intake appointment of 90 minutes is suggested for the initial meeting in order to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
