A child psychologist has some key responsibilities towards their clients. These do play a great role in the child’s treatment. They perform these to improve your child’s mental health:
Growing up a child faces many challenges. Sometimes, they face challenges in thinking, speaking, behaving, or learning. These can affect their daily life, school life, and relationships. A child psychologist understands these problems. Children who are suffering need extra help to deal with their thoughts and emotions. We provide that help to children to make them feel better and do better in life.

If as a parent you are experiencing any of the signs among these problem in your child then it is high time that you consider visiting the best child counsellor. If your child is struggling, Help is available. Let’s work together to bring positive changes.
There are multiple signs that parents should be aware of their children, these are if your child is not speaking at the expected age, they have difficulty learning or understanding, they get angry or upset very often, they avoid people or find it hard to make friends, they are always restless or can’t focus, poor performance in studies, signs of autism or ADHD etc. There are also external factors involved when a child must take help from a therapist when a child has gone through a difficult event like a divorce, bullying, the death of a loved one etc.
If your child shows signs of aggression, restlessness, excessive tantrums, anxiety, or difficulty in social activity, any behaviour that may seem concerning to you, consult a child consultant immediately. Because behaviour therapy will help them dealing with their emotions and develop better coping and social skills.
If your child can’t utter simple monosyllabic words or isn’t speaking as much as other kids of their age, has trouble forming sentences, or they fail to understand, they may have a speech delay. A psychologist can assess this and recommend the right intervention. A detailed assessment on your child’s speech progress done by a child psychologist can only reveal if there are any underlying reasons to it and can suggest proper treatment for that.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children is commonly identified by a consistent pattern of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that interferes with daily functioning and development. Symptoms may include difficulty concentrating, being easily distracted, forgetting instructions, trouble organizing tasks, and frequently losing items. Hyperactive behaviours may involve constant fidgeting, excessive talking, inability to sit still, or climbing in inappropriate situations. Impulsive symptoms often show as interrupting others, blurting out answers, or acting without thinking about consequences. These behaviours are usually more severe than typical childhood restlessness. A comprehensive psychological evaluation by a professional like Shibasish Mukherjee can help confirm the diagnosis and create a tailored treatment plan, which may include behaviour therapy, parent counselling, or academic support.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects communication, behavior, and social interaction. Signs of autism typically appear in early childhood, often before the age of 3. You may notice that your child avoids eye contact, has delayed speech or limited language use, repeats actions or words (echolalia), resists changes in routine, or struggles to play or interact with others. Some children may also show unusual sensitivities to sound, touch, or lights. If you observe these behaviors consistently, it’s important to consult a qualified child psychologist. Experts like Shibasish Mukherjee, who specializes in autism and neurodevelopmental disorders, can conduct a detailed assessment and guide you with early intervention strategies.
