No one ever said being a parent was easy. But it can be even more challenging when your child has a behavioral disorder. These types of conditions usually involve disruptive behaviors that can create problems at home, school, and in social settings.

Our skilled team at All Day Medical Care Clinic offers telemedicine appointments for both medical and behavioral health visits. That means your child can get evaluated from the safety and comfort of your home, and they get the help they need to thrive.

Plus, skipping a trip to the clinic limits your exposure to potential illnesses, such as the common cold, flu, and COVID-19. But one of the biggest benefits is how telemedicine offers health care solutions for everyone, including children with behavioral health disorders.

During our first telehealth appointment, we conduct a comprehensive assessment to reach a diagnosis. Then, we help create a personalized treatment strategy — such as play therapy or school strategies — and continue meeting virtually to monitor progress and make adjustments as needed.
In addition to working with the child or adolescent with the behavioral disorder, we also offer services for families and parents to ensure they also get the support they need.
