Mental health is a vital part of a child’s overall health, and at Colonia Pediatrics in Edison, NJ, we provide thorough Mental Health Screening services to identify emotional and behavioral concerns early. Our goal is to ensure every child receives the support needed to thrive socially and emotionally.
Mental health screenings allow pediatricians to detect issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and behavioral disorders at an early stage, improving the chance for successful interventions and healthier outcomes.
Our pediatricians in Edison utilize standardized, evidence-based tools tailored to your child’s age, combining questionnaires, interviews, and observations. We engage both parents and children to gain a comprehensive understanding.
If a screening identifies concerns, we work closely with families and mental health specialists to develop a customized plan, ensuring access to counseling, therapy, or medication management if needed.
We provide guidance on how to support your child’s mental health at home, recognize symptoms early, and build coping skills to manage stress and emotional challenges effectively.
Regular follow-ups help track your child’s progress and allow us to modify care plans to meet evolving needs, supporting continuous emotional wellness.
Colonia Pediatrics is dedicated to serving Edison families by delivering compassionate, expert mental health screening and support for children of all ages.
