What does a Child Psychiatrist do?
Child and Adolescent Psychiatrists are medical doctors who use their knowledge of biological, psychological, developmental, and social factors in both assessing, and if warranted, working with families to develop an individualized treatment plan.
What are some of the most common questions that child and adolescent psychiatrists help families answer?
- Why is my child struggling with sadness, anxiety, anger, or social difficulties?
- Are the difficulties my child is facing part of typical development or something more serious?
- Should I consider medication treatment for my child, or is it reasonable to try other interventions first?
- How can I help my child at home?
- My child is not making progress in treatment. Are there any other options we should consider?
