Understanding Children
Our children are our most precious possession, and we have to take care of their mental and behavioral health as well as their physical health. Children's spiritual development is critical to their strong and healthy development. However, as children continue their journey through life, just like adults, they may sometimes encounter problems that they cannot cope with on their own. Moreover, when they experience these problems, they may not be able to express themselves adequately like adults. At this stage, the professional support of the child and the family will help prevent more serious problems that may occur in the future.

In Child Psychiatry Department, counselling and treatment services are offered for pre-schoolers and adolescents, considering that each has different characteristics.
When should I consult a child psychiatrist?
There is no need to experience a problem to apply to child psychiatry specialists. Even if the child does not have any psychological problems, sometimes parents can still apply just for a follow-up on the child's healthy development or for consultation about what they can do to guide their children correctly.
