Psychiatry at Cameron Regional Medical Center

Child Psychiatry

Our child psychiatrists specialize in diagnosing, treating, and supporting the mental health of children and adolescents. Mental well-being is just as important as physical health, and we are here to help young minds thrive.

Common treatments include therapy, behavioral interventions, medication management, and family counseling.

What is Child Psychiatry?

Child psychiatry focuses on the mental, emotional, and behavioral health of young individuals. Kids and teens face unique challenges, and early intervention can make a huge difference in their development and well-being.

Our specialists work closely with families to create personalized treatment plans. Some conditions can be managed through therapy and lifestyle changes, while others may require medication and specialized care.

Child psychiatry treatments aim to:

• Help children manage emotions and behaviors
• Support healthy social and academic development
• Provide coping strategies for stress and anxiety
• Strengthen family relationships and communication

When Should You Seek Help?

You may want to consult a child psychiatrist if your child is experiencing:

• Anxiety and depression – Persistent sadness, fear, or worry affecting daily life
• ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) – Difficulty focusing, impulsivity, or hyperactivity
• Autism spectrum disorders – Challenges with social skills, communication, and behavior
• Behavioral disorders – Aggression, defiance, or extreme mood swings
• Trauma and PTSD – Emotional distress following a traumatic event
• Learning and developmental issues – Struggles with school, memory, or problem-solving
• Self-harm or suicidal thoughts – Urgent need for professional intervention

A child psychiatrist can assess the situation and recommend therapy, lifestyle changes, or medication if necessary.
