The mental well-being of a child or adolescent can be impacted by various factors, including family dynamics, school experiences, and life events. The number of children and teenagers diagnosed with a mental health disorder in Australia has increased, with approximately one in seven now affected.
At APS, we provide the highest standard of treatment and service for children and adolescents requiring psychiatric care. We offer comprehensive psychiatric assessments, giving you a total overview of your child’s mental health that, once completed, provides you with a diagnosis and treatment plan.
