Hope Realized

Service Description: Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health services are for infants, toddlers, and young children with impairing mental health symptoms and/or developmental needs.  These services allow for the assessment and treatment of infants and young children.  The assessment process includes a DC:0-5 Diagnostic Assessment.  Additional psychotherapeutic services may include Family Psychotherapy, Child-Parent Psychotherapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and/or in-home Family Skills services.

Description of Services: TSA provides professional mental health services to individuals and families of all ages.  Our clinical staff come from the fields of psychology, clinical social work, and marriage and family therapy and are licensed professionals and/or have advanced graduate training in a mental health field. 

Services generally start with a comprehensive assessment to address presenting problems/concerns.  This helps to identify appropriate recommendations for service needs.  Psychotherapy is one of the services that is most commonly provided in our outpatient setting.  This refers to a range of treatments that can help with mental health problems, emotional challenges, and some psychiatric disorders.  Psychotherapy aims to assist individuals to better understand their feelings and to provide tools to help individuals cope with difficult situations in a more adaptive way.  Psychotherapy services can assist people experiencing a wide range of mental health concerns.  Whether you and/or a family member are wanting help coping with individual or family concerns or assistance in enhancing your relationships with others, our professional therapists are committed to helping clients find meaningful, hope-filled lives.

Program Description: Community Based Skills groups are an opportunity for clients to learn and practice important emotional and behavioral coping, social, communication and daily living skills within the context of a group setting with peers of a similar age. Oftentimes, skills groups are an important addition to individual therapy and provide an opportunity for youth to practice skills that will help them cope with various mental health challenges they are facing and working through in therapy.   

Description of Services:  We believe the best way to provide services to a child is through strengthening and empowering the family as a unit.  This is the heartbeat of the philosophy of In-Home Family Based Services (FBS). FBS services are unique in that most often the treatment is offered in the client's homes. FBS services are designed to respond to each family's unique needs, therefore, the treatment approach is tailored to fit individual families.
