Dr Ivona Bialas
Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist

Helping patients and their families.


My Services

I can help assess, diagnose and treat patients with a range of emotional and  behavioural difficulties and problems with eating and sleeping. I employ the developmental perspective to understand child and adult problems. I also offer help and advice to families.


  • ADHD: problems with attention and/or hyperactivity, particularly when Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is suspected
  • Depression and Anxiety
  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
  • Drug and Alcohol dependence and problem use
  • Tic Disorders and Tourette’s Syndrome
  • Eating Difficulties

  • Young people who have physical symptoms which puzzle paediatricians
  • Children who have received various assessments and diagnoses whose problems need clarifying
  • Adults who need help with issues from their own childhood and parents who require help with parenting
  • Mothers and babies or expecting mothers with emotional difficulties
  • Sleep Problems


This is not a complete list but is meant to give a general idea.  Patients need to be referred to me in writing by another doctor, usually a General Practitioner or a Paediatrician.
