Supporting Children’s Emotional & Mental Health

Childhood is a time of rapid growth and change — not just physically, but emotionally and socially too. Some children may struggle with behavior, mood, or learning in ways that go beyond normal ups and downs. Pediatric Psychiatry focuses on understanding these challenges and guiding children and families towards healthier, happier lives.

At our hospital, we believe mental health is just as important as physical health. Our team of child psychiatrists, psychologists, and therapists provides compassionate, confidential, and evidence-based care tailored to each child’s needs.
