Behavioral pediatricians help children and adolescents with learning, developmental or behavioral problems. Behavioral pediatricians provide care for the following diagnoses:

• Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
• Anxiety disorders
• Autism spectrum disorders
• Aspergers
• Bipolar disorder
• Learning disabilities
• Mood disorders
• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
• Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD)

Services provided by behavioral pediatricians include different types of testing and therapy in conjunction with the family, as well as community liaison services.

Developmental pediatricians often work with pediatric rehabilitation therapists, neurologists, social workers and psychologists. Because every child is unique, the plan of care is based on his or her individual needs. If you have any questions or concerns about your child's behavior, talk with your child's pediatrician.
