October is Selective Mutism Awareness month! Watch Dr. Mondesir as she interviews Dr. Vera Joffe, a psychologist, who is Board Certified in Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology, on Selective Mutism, a childhood anxiety disorder where kids find it difficult to speak in certain social settings. We hope you find the information useful about this childhood anxiety disorder.
