Pediatric psychology examines how a wide range of developmental, medical, and psychological issues impact children. Pediatric psychology provides psychological and neuropsychological assessments for numerous developmental, learning, and neurodevelopmental problems. They also help children and their families deal with behavioral and psychological issues related to chronic diseases and other medical problems. The Section of Pediatric Psychology offers assistance to children who need grief counseling through its Medical Crisis and Loss Clinic. Additionally, staff members provide consultation services to other pediatric sub-specialties and provide outreach services involving parenting.
