The Pediatric Psychiatry Inpatient Consultation Service at Children's Hospital Boston provides specialized psychological services for children and families facing challenges related to medical illness and hospitalization.
Because hospitalization, illness and medical procedures can be stressful to patients and their families, we provide parent consultation and short term therapy for children in the hospital and/or family members.
Our goals are to minimize stressful experiences, promote healthy coping and help children and their families return to their prior state of emotional wellbeing.
