Child & Adolescent Psychiatry

Child and adolescent psychiatry addresses mental health conditions in young people from infancy through the teenage years. Children and teens are not simply small adults — their brains are still developing, and mental health conditions often present differently than in adults.

Common conditions we treat include ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, anxiety, depression, behavioural issues, and school-related difficulties. Early intervention is crucial — treating conditions in childhood often prevents more serious problems in adulthood.

At Nafs Wellcare, our child and adolescent psychiatrists work closely with parents, schools, and other providers to create comprehensive treatment plans. We involve families as partners in care and provide guidance on how to support your child's mental health at home and at school.
