Pediatric Psychiatry at Connecticut Children’s

Connecticut Children’s psychiatrists are board-certified in child and adolescent psychiatry. We’re experts in diagnosing and treating the full range of psychiatric conditions and mental health concerns in children, teens and young adults.

Conditions We Treat

We meet most patients during their inpatient stay on Connecticut Children’s medical floors, or in the Emergency Department. There, we provide consultation services for critical and ongoing psychiatric conditions.

We create a unique care plan for your child, provide therapy, and if needed, can prescribe medications. We also work with your family to help understand other factors that may be affecting your child’s mental and behavioral health.

Some of the conditions we treat include:

• ADHD
• Anxiety
• Chronic Health Conditions
• Depression
• Disruptive Behavior Disorders
• Eating Disorders
• Mood Disorders
• Trauma
