Conduct Disorder involves a persistent pattern of behavior that violates rules, boundaries, or the rights of others, often causing significant concern at home, school, or in the community.
Conduct Disorder is a behavioral health condition in children and adolescents marked by a repeated pattern of serious rule-breaking, aggression, disregard for others’ rights, or unsafe behaviors. Concerns may include frequent lying, stealing, fighting, bullying, property destruction, running away, truancy, or other behaviors that create safety, legal, school, or family concerns.
Conduct-related symptoms can be complex and may occur alongside ADHD, trauma exposure, mood disorders, substance use, learning difficulties, family stress, or environmental challenges. A careful evaluation is important to understand what is driving the behavior, assess risk and safety needs, and identify the most appropriate level of care and supports.
At BeeWell, treatment planning is individualized and may include family support, therapy coordination, school collaboration, safety planning, and referral to higher levels of care when needed. Medication may be considered when symptoms are connected to treatable co-occurring concerns such as ADHD, mood instability, anxiety, irritability, impulsivity, or aggression.
