A 15-year-old boy who was diagnosed with Asperger’s came into Dr. Jennie’s office feeling isolated, depressed, anxious, and was underperforming in school. Dr. Jennie started his progression by challenging his black and white thinking about people and gave him coping skills to deal with his social anxiety. He was then able to reconnect with friends and even got a girlfriend. After a couple of months he was happier, more confident and calmer. His mother remarked “we have our son back.”

Dr. Jennie continues to be a sounding board for him, and to help him put the puzzle pieces of his life together.
