How Can a Child Psychologist Help?

Child psychologists are experts who use different types of therapy to help kids and grown-ups. They can teach kids and teens how to deal with mental health issues and everyday life.
 
Child psychologists understand kids’ and teens’ mental health needs and how friends and family can affect them. They know about important things like growth, actions, and feelings and how they change as kids grow up.
 
Going to therapy with a child psychologist can be a good idea for kids and teens. It gives them a safe place to talk about what’s going on in their life.
 
Sometimes it’s hard to know when your child or teen should see a child psychologist. Here are some signs that may mean it’s time for a visit:
Mother consoling with upset kid daughter who is dealing with big change
Your child is dealing with a stressful situation or big changes.
Sad teenager girl showing personality changes
You’ve noticed significant changes in their personality and/or behaviors, or existing problems seem to be getting worse.
Little baby boy crying over a psychological trauma
Your child has experienced trauma.
Teenage school boy standing alone without any friend
Your child has a hard time making and keeping friends.
Young boy upset because of a failed math test
Your child’s performance at school is declining.
