Comprehensive Care for Children and Adolescents
We provide diagnostic, treatment, case management, advocacy, psychoeducation, and consultation services for the full range of psychiatric disorders, including anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar, obsessive-compulsive disorders (OCD), tic disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), conduct disorder, psychosis, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
We have five specialty programs focused on the major areas of child and adolescent mental illness in addition to our general clinic.
We employ a multidisciplinary systemic approach to treating psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents. Emotional and behavioral disorders in youth are the result of the interplay between biological, genetic, psychological, cognitive, environmental, and social systems and present a profound challenge to the youth, to their families, to schools, and to their community at large. Successful treatment includes providing relief from symptoms of the underlying psychiatric disorder, alleviating stressors and conditions that can trigger or exacerbate problems, and enhancing the youth's functioning at home, in the school, and in the community. Comprehensive treatment may involve combining medications and psychotherapy with family therapy and school consultation.
