Welcome to The Sherkow Center for Child Development
The Sherkow Center for Child Development and Autism Spectrum Disorder is a not-for-profit organization formed to provide education, treatment, and research in the area of developmental delays and autism spectrum disorders. Our goal is to help all children on the spectrum achieve their optimal potential by using our psychoanalytic understanding of development, incorporating the most current neurobiological findings about the plasticity of the brain.
