Licensed staff deliver individual, group, and family therapy supported by psychiatric services, case management, and psychological assessments. Specialized therapies such as multisystemic therapy (MST), play therapy, and psychiatric rehabilitation build coping skills and emotional resilience. Clients receive care in homes, schools, outpatient settings, or via telehealth to ensure flexible, accessible support.

Their 8-bed Crisis Receiving and Stabilization Unit offers a safe, unlocked space for adults to receive 24-hour care for up to three days, with supervision, medication support, and therapy. Clients must be independent in daily routines and bring their own medications.
