Treating Professional Profiles
The following professionals have joined our SMG~CAN community. They represent various specialties that work with children with Selective Mutism. SMG~CAN commends these professionals for taking an interest in treating or working with children with SM. The listings on this page can provide a source of referral information for parents seeking a treating professional for their child. SMG~CAN cannot, however, specifically endorse treating providers and reminds parents to carefully qualify any professional before beginning treatment. Suggestions for qualifying a treating professional are found on our Find a Treating Professional page.
