At CHC, we provide a unique combination of comprehensive care and specialized expertise in child, adolescent, and young adult psychiatry. This means your family has access to a highly skilled team that supports individuals from birth through age 25 across a broad spectrum of conditions and needs.



Our psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, and child/adolescent psychiatry fellows work collaboratively to deliver highly individualized care. This team-based model ensures every client and their family benefits from the collective knowledge and insights of our entire group.



This results in a client-centered approach to understanding and diagnosing needs, leading to a developmentally appropriate treatment plan that addresses mental health and behavioral concerns.
