Child Psychology Information:

A child psychologist is a person with a doctorate degree in psychology, who has a special interest in working with children. They are the same as any other psychologist, the only difference being they only specialize in children. They generally treat people from ages 3-13. In addition to studying other aspects of psychology, the child psychologist usually takes specific interest in subjects regarding that of the children's family.

One should see a child physiologist if the child has learning disabilities, has been neglected, is depressed or has dramatic mood changes (similar to Bi Polar disorder.)
