Parents and teachers often notice if a child is having trouble with thinking, emotions, or behaviour. Signs can include problems in school, learning challenges, behavioural issues, or emotional struggles like anxiety and mood swings. Additionally, developmental issues with speech, motor skills, or social interactions may be apparent. Caregivers might also observe attention and focus problems, such as those related to ADHD or Autism, along with significant changes in behaviour or mood.
If these signs are present, a psychological assessment can be very helpful. It evaluates a child's strengths and weaknesses, providing a thorough understanding of their overall mental health. It also serves to guide tailored interventions and support, promoting a more effective approach to meet the child's unique needs.
Early recognition and intervention through assessments can positively impact a child's well-being and development.
If you are concerned, consider consulting with professionals such as paediatricians, psychiatrists or psychologists, who can provide guidance.

| How do you choose the "right" Psychologist? |
|
There are several considerations when choosing the right psychologist. Here are some tips to ensure you find someone who is a good fit for your needs.
-
Credentials and Licensing
Look for psychologists who are licensed or registered with reputable psychological associations or boards in your region. Verify their credentials and ensure they have received proper training and education from accredited institutions. In Singapore, psychologists typically hold a minimum of a Master's degree in psychology.
- Experience and Specialization
Seek psychologists who have significant experience working with individuals facing challenges similar to yours. Whether it is depression, anxiety, trauma, or relationship issues, autism or ADHD, a psychologist with relevant expertise can provide tailored support and interventions.
-
Areas of Expertise
Look for a professional who specialises in areas aligning with your specific concerns. Some psychologists may specialise in child psychology, forensic psychology, neuropsychology or other niche areas. Consider your unique needs and seek out professionals whose expertise matches with your concerns.
- Therapeutic Approaches
Psychologists employ various therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectic Behaviour Therapy (DBT), among others. A skilled psychologist will adapt their approach to suit your preferences and intervention goals.
-
Compatibility
Choose a psychologist with whom you feel comfortable and understood. Consider scheduling an initial consultation to assess their communication style, empathy and overall demeanour.
