Psych Boston · Serving Weymouth & Norfolk County

Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist in Weymouth, 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 Weymouth, Massachusetts, from our office in Lexington and through secure telehealth. Weymouth families often choose telehealth for routine follow-ups to avoid the drive into the Route 128 corridor.

Child and adolescent psychiatry for Weymouth patients: who it helps

People from Weymouth 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.

Getting care from Weymouth

We do not have a separate office in Weymouth; all in-person visits take place at our Lexington location. Weymouth patients are usually about 40 minutes from our Lexington office via Route 3 and I-93 north to Route 128/I-95. The MBTA Greenbush Line commuter rail stops at Weymouth Landing and East Weymouth, with bus connections to Quincy Center.

We regularly see patients from Weymouth Landing, Jackson Square, Columbian Square, North Weymouth and South Weymouth. For many Weymouth residents, a combination of an in-person first visit and telehealth follow-ups works well.

Frequently asked questions about child and adolescent psychiatry in Weymouth

Can I get child and adolescent psychiatry by telehealth from Weymouth?

In many cases, yes. Weymouth 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.

What ages do you see?

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

Will my child be put on medication?

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

Can you work with my child's school?

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

Which Weymouth neighborhoods do you serve?

We see patients from all parts of Weymouth, including Weymouth Landing, Jackson Square, Columbian Square, North Weymouth and South Weymouth, as well as surrounding Norfolk County communities.
