Child & Adolescent Inpatient Services
Sutter Center for Psychiatry

The child program, ages 5-12, focuses on developmental issues of school and family problems. Frequently, hyperactivity and depression are the presenting problems. The adolescent program, ages 13-17, emphasizes issues dealing with identity, often presenting with depression, substance abuse and/or aggressive behavior. The warm, nurturing environment, with an emphasis on self management and skill development, provides a stable and positive atmosphere needed for continued psychological and emotional growth for children of all ages. During the school year, educational assessments and onsite school programs are held Monday through Friday.
