1
Direct Support
Our licensed clinicians meet with students 1:1 for direct mental health support on site. We also provide support and observations in the classroom and recommend/implement interventions or accommodations.
2
Group Support
Our clinicians can facilitate groups for students on site during school hours. Examples of groups we have run include 5th grade girls self-esteem, 3rd & 4th grade boys emotional regulation group, 8th grade executive functioning group.
3
Social Emotional Learning (SEL)
We often hear from students that the social emotional lessons they recieve do not resonate with them. Schools have specific topics that they want to address but have trouble finding curriculum that meets their needs. We offer a variety of options to help fill the gap. We can do one SEL on a specific topic or collaborate on year long SEL programing. As therapists for children and teens in the community we bring a unique perspective and love to teach skill building that has worked for our clients.
4
Mental Health/Suicide Risk Assessments
We have worked with k-8 schools and high schools on planning, facilitating, assessing and communicating with families on suicide/mental health assessments.
5
Speaking & Trainings
We provide custom trainings for schools and speaking for parents, teachers, or emotional support teams. Our clinicians have worked in a variety of mental health settings i.e., therapeutic day schools, inpatient psychiatric units and partial hospitalization programs and as school social workers. This experience and our work in private practice has given us a unique understanding of behavior management, school refusal, confidence building, school based anxiety and building resilient kids.
