Psychiatry

Our fellowship-trained, board-certified child and adolescent psychiatrists and advanced nurse practitioners (APN) are expertly trained in treating a wide range of child and adolescent behavioral, emotional and psychiatric disorders with a special expertise in working with special needs children and adolescents.

RWJBarnabas Health follows a family-centered approach in conducting comprehensive assessments and development of an individual treatment plan.

Referrals are accepted from parents, physicians/APNs, schools, and other agencies.

We work closely with referral sources and collaborate extensively within RWJBarnabas Health with providers of other disciplines in caring for children and their families.
