CHILDRENS PSYCHIATRY

CHILDRENS PSYCHIATRY is a public school that is part of the UNM MIMBRES SCHOOL school district, located in ALBUQUERQUE, NM with about 27 students.

The University of New Mexico Children’s Psychiatric Center (UNM CPC), located at 1001 Yale Blvd NE in Albuquerque, serves as the state’s premier facility for children and adolescents experiencing acute psychiatric and behavioral health crises. As part of the UNM Health System, the center provides a comprehensive range of inpatient and outpatient services designed to treat young patients struggling with severe emotional, mental, and behavioral challenges. Their multidisciplinary team—which includes psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialized nurses—works in a trauma-informed environment to provide stabilization, diagnostic assessment, and long-term treatment planning.

Beyond clinical care, the facility plays a critical role in the community and the broader healthcare landscape of New Mexico. It serves as a vital teaching hospital, training the next generation of child and adolescent psychiatrists and mental health professionals through the University of New Mexico School of Medicine. By integrating advanced clinical research with compassionate, patient-centered care, the UNM Children’s Psychiatric Center remains a cornerstone resource for families seeking specialized psychiatric support, emphasizing a holistic approach that involves both the patient and their support system in the recovery process.
