Anthony Silver:
MS, MA, LMFT, BCN, QEEG-D
Founder & Executive Director, Gray Matters
💫
Growing up: “I grew up on the edge of the green belt around London. There were nice houses, plenty of space, lots of fields, and air raid shelters that hadn’t been torn down.”
💫
Living in Westport: “Coming from an urban environment [London], I think Westport is absolutely magical. I also love the history here.”
💫
During COVID: “My daughter moved up to be with me during COVID. We kayaked every afternoon, we baked, we got swept out by crazy tides, and got our feet stuck in the mud.”
💫
On standing up for yourself: “I went to a boarding school from age 13 to 15. I was the only Jew out of 650 kids. I found myself in an environment where people were looking for horns and making oven jokes. My mother told me to just ignore it, but that’s the worst thing you can do. You have to stand up for yourself. People only behave in the way you allow them to.”
💫
Success: “Nothing is easy, nothing comes easy. Success in any field is about tenacity, getting up after you’re knocked down.”
💫
His career: “I’ve always loved the brain, always have loved psychology.”
💫
A favorite moment: “One of my patients invited me to his high school graduation. He gave a speech and mentioned me, thanking me for who he is today.”
💫
On children: “There’s nothing more beautiful and magical than having a child.”

Children and Mental Illness: An Innovative Treatment with . . .
If your child has ADHD, anxiety and/or depression, if he/she is failing classes and unable to make friends, you’ll want to find a solution. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Unfortunately, finding the right medication is tricky. Kids swallow pill after pill while parents monitor any alleviation of distress. For weeks, months, even years, they hope to find something to correct signs of their child’s diagnosis while not even knowing if the diagnosis is accurate. The number of unknowns can be staggering, depleting. . .
Here’s the good news: we’re on the crest of a sea change in the way our children - and ourselves - are diagnosed and treated for mental afflictions, ranging from ADHD and depression to PTSD and addiction. These psychological conditions can be accurately pinpointed, eliminating most of the need for trial and error in determining the correct medication. Even better, however, one can treat these afflictions medication-free with brain imaging and neurofeedback. While it’s not fairy dust nor a magic pill, it’s part of a fascinating and effective new healing process. . .
