Psychoeducation

Children’s problems are often ignored or misinterpreted. The symptoms of children’s problems are largely unknown by parents. They often rely on sources of information that may not provide them with genuine information. Wrong approaches to children’s problems can delay diagnosis and proper treatment of the child’s problem. Psychoeducation provides parents with information regarding the child’s problem. It includes a discussion about the symptoms, causes and treatment procedures. It empowers the family members so that they can deal with the children’s problems in the proper way. It is applicable in all childhood problems like Autism, Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Learning Disability, Conduct Disorder and Oppositional Defiant Disorder to name a few.
