It should not be so difficult to get ADHD, ASD, Depression, or Anxiety diagnosed and treated. I founded Fox Fern ADHD Clinic because I was frustrated with how difficult it was to get good quality and convenient care for my own ADHD diagnosis. From intake to prescription delivery, my team and I set out to rethink what psychiatric care could be and improve the process from the ground up. We might be the only clinic with a patient-experience graphic designer on staff because we aim to relentlessly refine how we help our patients feel less overwhelmed and more capable. We work hard to make our treatment plans unique and data-driven.

What does a child psychiatrist do?
Child psychiatrists specialize in diagnosing and treating mental health conditions in children and adolescents. They support children and their families in navigating a wide range of challenges related to growing up, including academic difficulties, peer-related stress or bullying, family transitions such as divorce, and mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, or ADHD. Treatment often includes age-appropriate therapy and, when appropriate, medication. Child psychiatrists also frequently collaborate with other professionals involved in a child’s care—such as therapists, pediatricians, teachers, or occupational therapists—to ensure a coordinated approach. They may also conduct developmental or psychological assessments to clarify diagnoses or determine the most effective treatment plan for a child. While child psychiatrists may see patients of any age under 18, many focus on specific developmental stages, such as the toddler years or adolescence.
How to find a child psychiatrist
Psychology Today’s online directory allows users to search for psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) who specialize in working with children. The platform also offers additional filters to help you find a provider with relevant specialty areas who sees patients in your child’s age group. Each provider profile includes detailed information such as therapeutic approach, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. These details can help you evaluate whether a provider is a good match for your child’s needs and developmental stage.
