Developmental psychiatry focuses on understanding mental health disorders in children and adolescents. It examines the interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors, including genetic predispositions, neurobiological changes, social interactions, and cognitive development, which collectively shape a child's mental health across the developmental stages.

The goal of developmental psychiatry is to promote healthy psychological development and well-being in children and adolescents, while also addressing and managing mental health challenges when they arise.

To achieve this, IMH's multidisciplinary team offers assessment and intervention services, dedicated to addressing the diverse emotional, behavioural, and developmental needs of children and adolescents up to 18 years old. Our treatment programmes are designed to support you and your child on their journey towards better mental well-being.
