Additional Information

I'm passionate about becoming a child psychiatrist because I deeply care about children's mental health and development. My goal is to support young people in navigating emotional and psychological challenges, helping them to build resilience and thrive. I'm drawn to this field because I believe in the importance of early intervention and the impact a supportive and understanding environment can have on a child's overall well-being. By combining my empathy with a strong foundation in medical knowledge and psychology, I aim to make a positive difference in the lives of children and their families.
