Services Offered
Enhanced Therapeutic Services for Ages 6-12
Individual therapy: Provides a safe space for your child to explore their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors with a therapist. This allows for personalized treatment and helps them develop healthy coping mechanisms.
Group sessions: Creates a sense of belonging and support, allowing connection with individuals facing similar challenges. This can foster a sense of community and reduce feelings of isolation.Family involvement: Supports and helps the whole family, teaching them how to best help their child. This can strengthen family dynamics and improve communication. We regard the family as an integral part of the treatment, thus at least one caregiver must attend the IOP parent/multi-family group. Program elements are scheduled at times to be least disruptive to the adolescent and family members.
