Progressive Kids
the original progressive pediatric practice.
New York City’s boutique practice providing naturalistic behavior therapy grounded in compassion, collaboration, and science to foster each & every child’s progress at home, school, and beyond.
What we do:
Verbal Behavior
We build meaningful communication by strengthening language, functional communication, and expressive skills in natural, real-world contexts.
Social Skills
We help children connect with others through play, cooperation, shared problem-solving, and authentic social interaction across home, school, and community.
Flexibility & Executive Functioning
We foster flexible thinking, adaptability, planning, organization, and self-regulation — skills children need to navigate daily life with confidence.
Social Emotional Development
We support emotional awareness, regulation, empathy, and perspective-taking, helping children understand themselves and the feelings of others.
How we do it:
-
Behavior Therapy at home with kids & their families
-

Work on real world skills during community outings & transitions
