Emotional disorders in children and adolescents diagnostics and treatment
Emotional disorders in children often manifest during developmental transitions, including adolescence. These disorders affect well-being, academic performance, communication with peers, and overall quality of life. Therefore, they require timely diagnosis and treatment.
A child's emotions mirror their inner world and are closely tied to social situations. Changes in a child's daily routine, upbringing, or environment can lead to stress and emotional reactions. These reactions can manifest as fears, apathy, dysphoria, or various phobias.
Identifying emotional disorders requires conducting a clinical interview with the child, talking to the parents, observing behavior, and using standardized psychodiagnostic methods. An important step is determining the causes, which may include past illnesses or stress; characteristics of psychoemotional or intellectual development; family environment; upbringing; and the influence of the information environment, such as movies and computer games. The specialist then determines the type of emotional disorder. These include apathy, depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorders.
Treatment is integrated and includes individual, family, and group psychotherapy; corrective techniques such as emotional self-regulation skills training, play therapy, and art therapy; and pharmacotherapy (when indicated and under strict specialist supervision).
daily routine, getting enough sleep and nutrition, and establishing a stable family environment can help reduce the risk of emotional disorders. It is also important to limit exposure to negative media and develop self-regulation and emotional literacy skills. Regular preventive consultations can help identify warning signs early and prevent the development of more serious disorders.
After completing the course of treatment, the child will continue to be monitored by a specialist. We recommend supportive psychotherapy sessions, adjusting school and social workload, and developing communication skills. The goal at this stage is to solidify the results, develop sustainable coping strategies, and minimize the risk of recurrence.
