Mental health services for children

A wide range of actors in the wellbeing services county offer help and support with mental health issues in children. Your child's day-to-day functioning may have declined, or you may have concerns about your child's emotional and behavioural regulation, friendship skills, mood or coping. Our aim is to help you, the parents, assess and identify the problem and find the right service for you to support your child and you as a family. If you feel like you need support, you can contact your child h…ealth clinic, curator and psychologist services in pre-primary and basic education, school health services or the counselling service for families with children, for example. They will offer you the counselling, assessment, treatment or rehabilitation that you need.

The service is always planned together with the child and the parents, and, with your permission, we work together with the different actors. The service may include individual and/or group visits, network meetings and family sessions. The meetings can take place in the everyday environment of the child, such as in early childhood education and care or at school, your home or a clinic. We may also offer doctor's appointments, for example to start medication or for further treatment. The content of the services and treatment sessions are planned together with you, and they last the agreed time.

The services are confidential and voluntary.
