Child Mental Health

Child Mental Health refers to the emotional, psychological, and social well-being of children and adolescents. It encompasses how young individuals think, feel, and behave, and impacts their ability to cope with stress, relate to others, and make choices. Child mental health is vital for healthy development and influences overall well-being, including educational performance and relationships with peers and family. Disorders affecting child mental health may include anxiety, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and autism spectrum disorders, among others. Early identification and intervention are crucial for promoting positive mental health outcomes and ensuring that children can thrive in various environments.
