The emotional stresses facing our children and teens have never been higher, and few situations in life are as terrifying as when a child seeks to harm themselves. We all know we need more answers. That’s why we formed the Mental and Behavioral Health Institute at Cincinnati Children’s.
We are bringing together the nation’s largest team of experts in pediatric psychiatry, psychology, and behavioral health to dig deeper into the most complex challenges in mental health care. We are discovering better treatments, defining best practices, and putting them into action so that all children have access to the high-quality care they need.
As an academic leader, Cincinnati Children’s serves as a model for mental and behavioral healthcare providers across the country, a resource for leadership, and an advocate for families regardless of where they live. Patients here have the opportunity to participate in clinical trials, use telehealth technology to consult with experts without the expense of travel, and when necessary, receive inpatient care in facilities that feature state-of-the-art capabilities proven through research.
