Child Psychology
Modern lifestyle has not just affected adults but also children. Increasing demands and expectations from parents, peers and society to excel in everything has left kids to deal with great psychological pressure. Coupled with small family size, where working parents have very little time to spend spent with family has further complicated the matter.
Psychological problems amongst children have always been there, however the magnitude has increased manifolds today. Childhood depression, behavioral problems, substance abuse, alcoholism are on a rise. Disorders like Autism and the Autistic spectrum, unique to children, also need to be recognized and thoroughly evaluated.
The evaluation of psychological disorders in children requires a lot of patience from the healthcare experts and others dealing with such patients. Deep Analysis and several sessions are required to arrive at an accurate diagnosis. Treatment often involves behavioral modification techniques, avoiding medication.
