Psychological services

Psychologists work at all the main centres of HSN, treating children, young people, their families and adults 18 or older.

Special emphasis is on service for children and families with children, pregnant women and parents of infants.

Psychologists cooperate with schools and social services, for example.

Referral from a doctor is needed for an appointment with a psychologist. However, in certain cases, midwives in antenatal care, nurses in infant health care, school nurses and school psychologists may also refer to a psychologist.

Payment is in the same way as for other interviews in the primary healthcare centres (free for children, disabled persons and elderly people).
