Abstract
Stigma in pediatric mental health continues to be a significant barrier for youth to receive much-needed mental health care. Parents’ misperceptions regarding mental health may interfere with their child’s care and negatively influence their child’s view of mental health. For some children, their first experience with mental health occurs during medical hospitalization when they are seen by the pediatric psychiatry consultation-liaison (C/L) service. Despite this unique role, there is sparse research on how to address mental health stigma with patients and families within the context of pediatric C/L psychiatry.
