FREE Family Nights at LICM
JP Morgan Chase is sponsoring a series of informative family workshops complete with free museum play, refreshments, and expert talks to support your child’s future.
Psychologist Andrew Vaughan, Ph.D., author of Maximum Strength Parenting to Raise Maximum Strength Children, is often asked by parents, “What should I do with this kid?!”—a question that reflects everything from everyday curiosity to real moments of overwhelm. In this engaging workshop, Dr. Vaughan will help parents “tinker with their thinker,” offering thoughtful insights and practical, easy-to-use tools for navigating big feelings, strengthening emotional connections, and building resilience at home. Parents will walk away with actionable strategies to become more “child-proof”—calmer, more confident, and better equipped to support their children’s emotional growth while raising Maximum Strength kids.
Bio: Andrew Vaughan, Ph.D., is a psychologist with more than 30 years of experience working with children from birth to age 5 and their families.

Dr. Vaughan co-founded Up Wee Grow, a NYS-approved Early Intervention agency serving families across Long Island and New York City for nearly three decades, which was acquired by Achieve Beyond in 2024. He currently continues his clinical work with young children and families through Achieve Beyond.
