Mental health and emotional disorders in childhood

Kleinjan Hayes*

Children and teenagers with mental health issues can experience a variety of emotional and behavioural disorders, such as disruptive, depressive, anxious, and pervasive developmental (autism) disorders. These diseases can present as internalising or externalising issues. The most prevalent behavioural issues in preschool- and school-aged children are disruptive ones, like tantrums, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, oppositional, defiant, or conduct disorders. The typical paediatric clinic or family practice/general practitioner office has a number of favourable features that make them excellent for treating children and adolescents with efficient mental health treatments.
