Is this monster a bit powerful?

First Post
I recently brewed up a new batch of dragons for a campaign I'm writing, but said campaign will most likely contain 3 PCs, all of whom are prone to playing spellcasters regardless if everyone else is one too. I can actually predict what they will play: A warlock, a Wild-Magic Sorcerer, and a Wizard, I plan for the Wyrmling variety of this new dragon will be the first boss

Here are it's stats:
Purple Dragon
Wyrmling
Medium Dragon, Neutral
Armor Class 16
16HP (3d8+3)
Speed 30ft Fly 50ft
STR 15
DEX 10
CON 13
INT 15
WIS 14
CHA 10
Saving Throws: Dex +2 Con +3 Int +4 Wis +4
Skills: Perception +4 Stealth +2 Arcana +4
Damage immunities: Psychic
Condition Immunities: Charmed
Senses: Darkvision 60ft Blindsight 10ft
Languages: Draconic
Bite: +4 to hit 1d10+2 Piercing Damage plus 1d6 psychic damage
Mind Control
The dragon can attempt to take control of a creature’s mind, the dragon chooses one creature it can see within 30ft, that creature must make a DC 12 Charisma saving throw or be mind controlled (as Dominate Person) The dragon can only have one creature mind controlled at a time

Mind Thrust
The dragon chooses one creature it can see within 60 feet of it, that creature makes a DC 12 Wisdom save, taking 1d10+2 psychic damage on a failed save

Mind Blast (Recharge 5-6)
Emits psychic energy in a 20ft cone, each creature in that area must succeed a DC 12 Intelligence Saving Throw or take 4d6+2 psychic damage and be stunned for one minute. A creature can repeat the save at the end of each of its turns, removing the effect on a success

Innate SpellCasting (Psionics)
Save DC 12
At Will: Detect Thoughts, Message, Comprehend Languages, Tongues

Would this be too strong for them at 1st-3rd level? and I know they won't run away, no matter how much I tell them running is ok
