It’s important to treat underlying mental condition if it plays role of certain behavior. Forensic psychiatrist certainly can help too!
Every specialist has some thing different and important to wear to take care of any given individual. Before engaging this person, decide what your priority might be in the help for the person and discuss this with the specialist.

No, you need a clinical psychologist. A forensic psychologist serves the courts.
A psychiatrist specialist in adolescent care is indicated.
Any kind of help that he can get from a psychologist or psychiatrist as early as possible would be beneficial to prevent further decline.
Very possibly. It is certainly worth an evaluation.
