A child mental health assessment gives you critical information on your child’s needs, so you know how to prepare them for the future.
Understand the big picture
Knowing the difference between everyday ‘normal’ child behaviour and more serious mental health issues can be tough. At times, a child’s thoughts, feelings and behaviours can be up and down and it’s hard to know what ‘normal’ is. A child mental health assessment can help.
Perhaps your child is having a tough time at school, their teachers have raised concerns, or your child is finding it hard to make friends (and this happens for more than a few weeks). If this sounds familiar, it could mean something ‘bigger’ is going on for your child and it may be time to reach out. By recognising these needs early, you and your child can better prepare for their social and emotional future.
You know your child better than anyone. What challenges are they facing right now?
