Specialized Psychiatric Care for Children and Teenagers
We offer psychiatric evaluation and treatment for children and adolescents — from early childhood through the teenage years. Children's mental health needs are distinct from adults, and our approach reflects that. We take time to understand not just symptoms, but the child's developmental stage, family context, school environment, and social world.
We work closely with parents, pediatricians, schools, and therapists to provide coordinated, effective care.
We evaluate and treat:
ADHD and attention/behavioral difficulties
Anxiety and school refusal
Depression and mood disorders
Autism spectrum disorder (behavioral and co-occurring psychiatric conditions)
OCD
Trauma and PTSD
Oppositional and conduct difficulties
Tic disorders
Eating disorders (in coordination with primary care)
First-episode psychosis
What to expect:
The initial evaluation for a child or adolescent typically involves separate conversations with the parent(s) and the child, along with a review of any prior evaluations, school records, or outside provider notes. Parents are active partners throughout treatment.
