OFFICE LIMITATIONS

We do not have a psychiatrist on-site or a crisis intervention team. Because of this, we are unable to provide care for patients requiring particular types of psychiatric care. We can provide referrals to Boston and surrounding area psychiatric clinics or larger psychiatry offices who offer a comprehensive team.

Our practice manager can determine if our office will be able to provide you with the care you need.

WE DO NOT TREAT CHILDREN

Adolescents, 14 and older, are seen on a case-by-case basis and must have a therapist prior to evaluation.

Our practice manager can determine if our office is able to provide your teen with the best care.
