ABOUT ME
Welcome! I’m Dr. Levy.
I'm a board certified pediatrician with special training in treating mental health and behavior disorders in children and adolescents. I take a comprehensive approach to children and their families, looking at all aspects of health, including sleep, diet, exercise, family, social and school stressors. I firmly believe in trying to understand where a child is, and meeting them there to begin our work together.
I received my medical degree from Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and then did my Pediatric Residency at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. The last 5 years I have focused heavily on mental health and behavior disorders in children, and have done extensive additional training in the management of these disorders. I believe in following families closely and advising on all aspects of treatment including medications if deemed necessary, as well as establishing healthy routines.
I have a special place in my heart for treating mental illness, as I have dealt with it personally within my own family. I am dedicated to helping families understand their children and what they are going through, and helping children regain their lives and learn to thrive again.
I live with my husband, 3 children and rescue pup Josie in Newton.
Pediatric Mental Health of Boston is a LGBTQ+-affirming practice. We are committed to ensuring that our practice is a safe space for our patients.
