Child & Adolescent Psychiatry
Collaboration, Hope, Innovation, Leadership, Dedication
The Columbia University Division of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry is dedicated to advancing the science and care of mental and developmental health for all children, adolescents, and young adults.
Our mission is threefold:
- To provide state-of-the-art and compassionate care for those impacted by mental health and developmental disorders.
- To educate and inform the public, and train psychiatrists, psychologists, and other healthcare professionals working in the field of child and adolescent mental health.
- To conduct innovative research into the causes and treatment of mental health and developmental disorders in a collaborative environment.
What sets the Division of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry apart from other institutions is the excellence of our research faculty and our thoughtful leadership. Patients and families benefit from the extraordinary partnership between the Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, the New York State Office of Mental Health, and New York State Psychiatric Institute. This partnership brings together the best of innovative research, scientific advances, and clinical care.
