Intensive Case Management, Counseling Services, Psychiatric Services, and Initial Admission Assessments.
CHILD & TEEN SERVICES
We know that a child or adolescent who is struggling with emotional/behavioral issues can create stress within the entire family. That’s why Mental Health Cooperative’s approach works, because we not only focus on your child’s unique needs but also on the needs of your family. We assist you in finding real solutions that work. Our goal is your goal — seeing your child happy and successful in school, family and social situations.
Mental Health Cooperative has outstanding programs for:
Children
Adolescents
Families
A Child and Family Case Manager helps your family in a number of ways:
• School consultation/school-based case management
• Transportation assistance
• Juvenile court assistance
• Eligibility benefits and financial supports
• Behavior management assistance
• Alcohol and drug treatment as needed
Child and Youth Continuous Treatment Team
Intensive Case Management, which offers more face-to-face visits/month, can be necessary when these factors are present:
• Sudden increase of symptoms
• Multiple incidents of physical aggression
• Child has had psychiatric admissions or multiple crises
• Child is at risk for out-of-home-placement
A Child & Family Therapist provides individual and family counseling.
A Child Psychiatrist or Family Advanced Practice Nurse helps to determine the cause of the behaviors and will make recommendations for treatment including medication if needed.
