Welcome to Doctorbertie, a place where child psychiatry meets real life. I am Alberto Veloso, child psychiatrist, paediatrician, and father of four. Here I write about what I see in the consulting room, what the science tells us about how children grow, and what I am still learning as a parent myself. From the neuroscience of attachment to the quiet moments at the school gate, each post is an honest reflection on what children need from the adults around them.
