Our practice discipline of child and adolescent psychiatry encompasses disorders of emotion and behavior that have their origins in neurophysiology, genetics, and in environmental factors that affect the child's growth and development. Patients seen by the child and adolescent psychiatrist vary from those with common problems including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and generalized anxiety disorder, to more complicated conditions such as conversion or autistic disorders. Diagnostic evaluations give attention to the physical, genetic, developmental, emotional, cognitive, educational, family, peer, and social components. An integrated approach may involve individual, group, or family psychotherapy; medication; and/or consultation with other physicians or professionals from schools, juvenile courts, social agencies, or other community organizations. In addition, the child psychiatrist is prepared and expected to act as an advocate for the best interests of children and adolescents. The variety of diagnoses and the multiple etiologies that accompany these clinical presentations allow the child and adolescent psychiatrist to focus their patient-care and academic efforts on a broad range of problems.
