A Beautiful Balance of Play 

Dr. Adena Blickstein, MD, MPH is a holistic child psychiatrist, and clown. With a fellowship from Westchester Medical Center and a Masters in Public Health from Columbia University, she focuses on repairing, enhancing and creating sustainably flourishing and mutually beneficial parent-child relationships with a focus on play.

Dr. Blickstein has created a new, more human, connected and intuitive paradigm of mental health called The Attunement Model of Care. She has trained physicians, parents, and educators worldwide, that are invested in building a more joyful, holistic and evidence-based approach to healing children and restoring family balance. The Attunement Model of Care has been proven to enhance resilience and reduce and reverse mental health symptoms in children and adolescents sustainably, leading to decreased recidivism, polypharmacy, and most importantly healthier and happier children and families.
