Pediatric Mental Health

Autism

We embrace neurodivergence and are comfortable with the wide variety of sensory challenges children on the autism spectrum may face, and we want to help your child get all of the services they need so they can blossom! We can refer to various supportive resources and help advocate for 504/IEP/MET/DDD.

*We are not able to evaluate for a pediatric autism diagnosis. This must be done by a specialist. Please see this link for resources on obtaining an autism evaluation: https://phxautism.org/resources/professionals-that-diagnose/

OCD, Anxiety, Phobias, Attention, Hyperactivity, and Impulse Issues

We understand that you love your child unconditionally and you want your child to be successful. It is crucial to identify their struggles early on.

  • Did you know that children who struggle with mental health are often bullied in school and can feel isolated from their peers?

  • Did you know that sometimes children are diagnosed with ADHD and may actually have a learning disability requiring specific therapies?

  • Do you feel guilty or judged because you think your child may need medication?

If medication is an option to help your child, we will ensure that you are educated and comfortable with the treatment plan. We will also follow your child closely and see them often for medication and behavior monitoring.

Being a parent is truly an exhausting journey, and it is just not easy. We have encountered many parents who want help but cannot find it…..or do not know where to start. Knowledge is power, and being here reading this right now is the first step. Though the journey may be challenging, it can be easier with a robust support system.

You should not feel alone, and neither should they!
