Developmental Care: What's Next?
Are you looking for support as your child already has a diagnosis? Here are some of the most common conditions that we support, and how we do it.
ADHD
Using evidenced based curriculums we explore identifying and managing emotions, discover their capacity for empathy, and give parents ways to help their child develop in these areas at home​
​
Best for children 5 to 11 years
Anxiety
At Mt. Tahoma Developmental Pediatrics, we use the FAST curriculum for Anxiety developed by Seattle Children's Hospital to help your child learn new coping skills to help ease their minds throughout the day. These visits are not meant for children and adolescents with suicidal ideation or self-harming behaviors.
​
Best for children and adolescents age
7 to 18 years.
Autism
Our appointments for autism follow up help stabilize patients and families prior to referring them back to their primary care provider for life long management. We can assist with common difficulties including sleep training, toileting, functional communication, care coordination between services and helping manage distressing behavior.
​
Best for children up to 18 years
Depression
The FAST curriculum for Depression developed by Seattle Children's hospital can also be helpful in treating mild depression in the outpatient setting. This curriculum is not for children or adolescents with suicidal ideation or self harming behaviors.
​
Best for children and adolescents aged 7 to 18 years
Disruptive Behavior
Disruptive behavior is distressing for the entire family, and often is due to a communication breakdown between the child and the parent. At Mt. Tahoma Developmental Pediatrics, we use a program called RUBI, which helps us identify how and what your child is trying to communicate to you through their behavior. At the end of this program, parents also receive in Behavioral Support Plan which helps organize your observations and the interventions that help your child the most.
Best for ages 5 to11 years
Medication Management
Medication can be a great tool for children and families to have in their tool box to assist in academic success, mood stabilization and anxieties related to social communication. It is used in conjunction with other therapies to help your child have the opportunity to find and be their best self.
Best for ages 5 to 18 years
