This companion to our larger general mental health glossary covers terms commonly used in mental health in the context of children and adolescents.

With a focus on usage in the US, this glossary provides definitions of mental health terms commonly used in the context of children and adolescents. The definitions given for some terms also include links to more detailed information available elsewhere on the site, while our general mental health glossary provides definitions for terms used more broadly in mental health and psychology.
