Hi Parents,

Does anyone have any recommendations for a child psychiatrist in Louisiana? Preferably in SE Louisiana? It is impossible to find anyone seasoned in both ADHD and ODD.

Thanks so much for your help!

I don't think he has a license in Louisiana, but he may know someone that does:

Dr. Christopher Richards

Finding a child psychiatrist that specializes in both ADHD and ODD can be difficult, particularly in a specific region such as Southeast Louisiana. Have you tried contacting your local pediatrician or mental health organizations? They could have some suggestions or resources to help you in your search. Asking for referrals from friends or family members who have been in a similar circumstance may also help you find the correct doctor. It's all about casting a wide net and examining all options to find the best fit for your child's need. Good luck..
