“Mental health needs a great deal of attention. It’s the final taboo and it needs to be faced and dealt with – Adam Ant

Trident Super Specialty Neuropsychiatric Hospital and Rehabilitation Centre serves youngsters from infancy to adolescence and their families for the management of behavioural problems.  

Importance of Mental Health in Children

Mental health is an important part of a child’s overall health and has a profound impact on a child’s physical health and his or her ability to succeed in school and in society. The mental health of a child is as important as the child’s physical health in affecting how the child thinks, feels, and acts, both on the inside and outside. Mental health issues can have a long term impact on a child’s ability to fulfill his or her potential as an adolescent and as an adult.

Psychiatric treatment for children and adolescents. What is it?

Child Psychiatrist & Child Psychologist

A child and adolescent psychiatrist is a specialist in the diagnosis and treatment of behavioural disorders, thinking disorders, and emotional disorders in those aged eighteen and under. As a registered medical doctor who has gone on to specialise in general psychiatry, he or she has then taken further training in working psychiatrically with children. A child psychiatrist differs from a child psychologist in that they are trained in general medicine as well as psychology.

Common Psychiatric Conditions Among Children and Adolescents 

Mental illness doesn’t discriminate and can impact any child in any family. However, a child’s socioeconomic status (SES), neighborhood stress level, and family structure, along with the prevalence of childhood adversities can contribute to or exacerbate a mental health condition.

 

Child and adolescent psychiatry - The Trident Hospital approach

Seeking psychiatric help for your child can be a daunting experience. You might have seen other doctors already, but been left even more confused.

The child psychiatrists at Harley Therapy are committed to creating a supportive environment for you and your child. They see your child or adolescent as the important and unique individual he or she is and provide expert, experienced help in a warm and caring manner.

A comprehensive assessment will include talking to you and your child and learning about his or her physical health, emotional states, learning and developmental patterns, family life, and social habits. Your child psychiatrist will then share a treatment plan, taking all these factors into account and answering any questions you might have. This treatment plan might include medication and psychological therapy, but will be tailored to your child’s particular needs.
