The Division of Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics provides consultation for infants,
children, and adolescents with a range of neurodevelopmental disabilities. These disabilities
include academic underachievement, attention/deficit-hyperactivity disorder, autism
spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, learning disabilities, and chronic medical
conditions with associated developmental-behavioral concerns.
Our strengths based clinical approach is focused on helping families understand:
The complex development of infants, children, and adolescents, and how this fits into
their environment
The influences of biological, psychological, and social factors on development and
behavior
Evidence-based prevention and/or treatments, working closely as a consultant to the
child鈥檚 medical home.
We have interdisciplinary training with medical students, pediatric residents, psychology
interns and postdoctoral fellows. Our division is comprised of a Developmental-Behavioral
Pediatrician and Pediatric Clinical Psychologist.
