Autorenporträt
Wendy L. Moss, PhD, ABPP, is a licensed clinical psychologist and a certified school psychologist. She has worked with children, tweens, teens, parents, and educators and has collaborated with other mental health colleagues. She has worked in school, hospital, clinic, residential treatment, and private practice settings. Dr. Moss has counseled children as young as 3 and realizes that even such young children are capable of starting their journey toward independence. Dr. Moss also teaches groups of children on a variety of topics ranging from social competence to mindfulness to becoming an "upstander." Through her book Children Don't Come With an Instruction Manual: A Teacher's Guide to Problems That Affect Learners, Dr. Moss has helped teachers understand the behaviors and emotions of children in the classroom. She has also authored or coauthored a variety of books for children (e.g., Being Me: A Kid's Guide to Boosting Confidence and Self-Esteem; Bounce Back: How to Be a Resilient Kid; The Tween Book: A Growing-Up Guide for the Changing You [coauthored with Donald A. Moses, MD]; The Survival Guide for Kids With Physical Disabilities and Challenges [coauthored with Susan A. Taddonio, DPT]; School Made Easier: A Kid's Guide to Study Strategies and Anxiety-Busting Tools [coauthored with Robin A. DeLuca-Acconi, LCSW]; The Survival Guide for Kids in Special Education (and Their Parents): Understanding What Special Ed Is and How It Can Help You [coauthored with Denise M. Campbell, MS]). In addition, Dr. Moss is a Diplomate in School Psychology through the American Board of Professional Psychology and has been appointed as a Fellow of the American Academy of School Psychology. Donald A. Moses, MD, is a psychiatrist who specializes in the treatment of adolescents and young adults. He has many years of experience in treating patients with psychoanalytic and psychodynamic psychotherapy, which has given him a clear understanding of the importance of children developing particular skills so that they later can be functional adults rather than resort to self-destructive behavior and difficulty functioning. Dr. Moses has gained his experience while working in psychiatric hospitals, as a psychiatric consultant to adolescent substance abuse treatment programs, as a flight medical officer in the United States Air Force, and from many years in private practice. His first book was Are You Driving Your Children to Drink? Coping With Teenage Alcohol and Drug Abuse (coauthored with Robert E. Burger). It highlights the essential need for parents to be there for their children, providing a sense of love and security throughout their childhood and teenage years. More recently, Dr. Moses coauthored with Wendy L. Moss, PhD, The Tween Book: A Growing Up Guide for the Changing You. He has lectured to high school and college students, has spoken with educators as well as with parent audiences, and has spoken on radio and television on the topic of parent–child relationships.
