Psych Boston · Serving Billerica & Middlesex County

Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist in Billerica, MA

A child and adolescent psychiatrist evaluates and treats emotional, behavioral and developmental concerns in children and teens, working closely with parents, schools and therapists so care makes sense at home and in the classroom.

Psych Boston provides child and adolescent psychiatry for patients in Billerica, Massachusetts, from our office in Lexington and through secure telehealth. Billerica is home to many commuters working along Route 3 and I-495, and evening-before-work or Saturday visits are often the easiest fit.

Child and adolescent psychiatry for Billerica patients: who it helps

People from Billerica come to us for child and adolescent psychiatry for many reasons, including:

  • Children and teens with attention, focus or hyperactivity concerns
  • Kids with worry, panic, school refusal or separation anxiety
  • Teens with low mood, irritability, sleep changes or withdrawal
  • Children with behavior problems at home or school
  • Autistic children and teens with co-occurring anxiety, attention or sleep concerns

What to expect

  1. Parent and child interview: We meet with parents and the child or teen, together and separately when appropriate, to understand development, school, family and current concerns.
  2. School and outside input: With your permission, teacher feedback, report cards, rating scales and previous evaluations help complete the picture.
  3. Diagnosis and family plan: Your psychiatrist explains findings in plain language and outlines options such as therapy, parenting strategies, school accommodations and medication when appropriate.
  4. Follow-up and coordination: Regular follow-ups track progress, and we coordinate with pediatricians, therapists and school teams when families want us to.

In many cases, yes. Billerica residents can often complete visits by secure video from home or work in Massachusetts. Your clinician may recommend an in-office visit in Lexington when that would be more helpful.

We see children, adolescents and young adults. Our office can confirm the right starting point for your child's age and concerns.

Not automatically. Medication is considered only when it is likely to help, and parents are involved in every decision.

Yes. With your consent, we can review school input and provide recommendations that support accommodations or a 504 or IEP plan.
