Dr. Ida Jeltova is a licensed psychologist, who specializes in working with children and their families. She has extensive expertise in working with youths that experienced trauma and changes in placements (e.g., multiple foster families). In her clinical work Dr. Jeltova focuses on each person's and/or family's unique profile of strengths and weaknesses, problem resolution facilitating and hindering factors, and available resources. The ultimate goal is to increase the match between the family members and to optimize the level of family functioning.

Dr. Jeltova has over 12 years of clinical experience across different settings (e.g., specialized schools, hospitals, community based clinics, and private practice) and different populations (e.g., severe behavior problems, developmental disabilities, mood disorders, and leaning difficulties). She coaches parents how to apply and modify various parental techniques for coping with complex behavioral issues of their children and provides psychological therapy, parenting skills training, and psycho-educational assessment of children 2 years old and up.

Dr. Jeltova keeps on expanding and polishing her clinical expertise and competence by being active in her field. She maintains an active applied school-based research for children at risk for failure and teaches and trains future doctoral school psychologists.

Dr. Jeltova was named the Young Scholar in School Psychology in 2005. She is currently co-authoring a book on Bipolar Disorder in Children and Teenagers aimed to provide the youths as well as their parents and teachers with helpful coping and behavior management strategies.

Dr. Jeltova earned her undergraduate degree in Psychology from St. Petersburg State University (1994), Masters in Psychology with specialization in Behavioral Applications from Queens College, CUNY (1997), and Ph.D. in School Psychology from the Graduate Center, CUNY, (2002).
