How can Child and Adolescent psychiatry help?
If your child is struggling with any of the above and you are looking to improve their life then this is a great place to start.
A Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist will provide your child with the support they need in a safe and strictly confidential setting. The Psychiatrist will help your child overcome whatever issues they may have, in order to feel better, happier and live a more fulfilled life.
As a medically-trained doctor, the Psychiatrist may also prescribe medication where it is deemed necessary.
Why see a child psychiatrist?
Child and adolescent psychiatrists work with children and young people who have mental health, emotional or behavioural problems.
They have the ability to understand issues from a range of perspectives and work with child/young person as well as their family and carers.
By identifying problems early there is a better chance of successful treatment and of relieving the immense stress on families.
Child psychiatrists are medically trained doctors who specialise in well-being of children, adolescents, and youth. They can therefore also prescribe specialist medication where indicated.
Additionally, child psychiatrists at Salus Wellness specialise in diagnosis and treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADD/ADHD and ASD.
What to expect in your first session?
When you visit our Cambridge Child and Adolescent Psychiatry clinic, your Psychiatrist will ask you/your child about their personal family history and how they are feeling in general. She will then carry out a full medical assessment to establish their specific issues and put together the most suitable plan of action for your child.
This could involve referring your child to another specialist; prescribing medication or continuing to see your child herself. Please do not hesitate to ask questions or seek clarification on any points raised at this initial session.
