Designed for youth with behavioral health needs, this program maintains children in the least restrictive settings while addressing psychiatric, emotional, and developmental disorders through evidence-based practices like TF-CBT and Nurtured Heart Approach.
Outpatient Mental Health Therapy
State-licensed outpatient clinics in Middlesex and Mountainside offer individual, family, and group therapies with psychiatric medication management. Services address depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and co-occurring substance use through CBT, DBT, and play therapy. Participating in-network with Medicaid and major insurers, this program provides structured care for emotional and behavioral disorders in a clinical setting.

Offered in one-hour, half-day, or full-day formats, these sessions equip professionals with tools for trauma-informed care, behavior modification, and collaboration strategies tailored to organizational needs.
