What profession treats psychological disorders in children?

Answer by  Travis404607 (3916)

There are pediatric psychologists and psychiatrists which can help treat mental disorders in children. You can go to the child's family doctor or pediatrician first to discuss the issue, and they can set up a referral to the appropriate specialist if the issue is something they feel another doctor should help with.
