Abby Peskin, Ph.D. is a child psychologist working remotely in FL for the University of Miami with a specialty working with young children and their families, and experience with anxiety, depression, selective mutism, disruptive behaviors, trauma and developmental delays, but a particular niche in working with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Abby has co-founded a 501c3 non-profit organization - Play it Forward is a toy lending library with a focus on equitable access to high-quality, developmentally supportive toys and inclusion for children with disabilities. We have recently partnered with the Miami-Dade public library system, where we will be able to distribute hundreds of sets of toys for children all throughout the county, including adaptive toys for children with disabilities in the catalog. Abby engages in research in her job at the University of Miami, with a focus on decreasing family disparities and increasing access to needed services. Recently she has published papers about the telehealth translation and implementation of PCIT and evaluating our screening and recruitment procedures for whether they're reaching the Miami-Dade population in an equitable manner (i.e., are we reaching a larger percentage of wealthy or highly educated families than the percentage in the Miami-Dade population as a whole?). Currently she is expanding this research to include evaluations of PCIT for children with ASD (e.g., time-limited models).
