What are Child Psychologists?
Child psychologists are mental health professionlas specialising in the mental, emotional, social and behavioural development of infants, toddlers, children, and adolescents. They use their specialised knowledge of child development to conduct psychological evaluations and provide various forms of therapy suited to a child’s age and cognitive level. Their core role is to help children and their families as well as diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and Autism.
Our team of experienced child psychologists are dedicated to helping young individuals overcome challenges, develop coping skills, and thrive.
SERVICES FOR CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE
We understand that each person is unique, and we tailor our approach to meet their specific needs. Our psychologists use evidence-based psychological assessments and counseling services to address a variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, executive dysfunction, behavioural issues, and learning difficulties. We also take a neurodiversity affirming approach when working with neurodivergent children such as those on the autism spectrum.
