Thoughtful and compassionate care for your child/Adolescent
Every child and family has their own unique story. At times, that journey can feel overwhelming—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. We are passionate about supporting children and their families through emotional, behavioural, and developmental challenges with care, understanding, and a tailored approach.
About Dr Nermin Kedis
I am an Infant, Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist with 20 years experience in psychiatry. I worked in public mental health services, including Monash Health and Melbourne Health in Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales.
I have a particular interest in the assessment and care of children aged 0–12 years and assessment of ADHD and ASD in children/adolescent.
My clinical work is grounded in developing a comprehensive understanding of each child/adolescent within the context of their developmental stage, family relationships, and broader environment, to inform thoughtful and individualised care.
In addition to my clinical work, I hold an appointment as an Adjunct Lecturer in the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences at Monash University, where I support medical students in their learning journey.
