I am Dr Taghrid, your friendly child psychiatrist. I'm on a mission to help young people, families and professionals understand neurodiversity and mental illness.
From autism to trauma, from depression to self harm - I’m here to help you make sense of the most complex of issues in the simplest of ways.
