The goal of every placement is to replace the negative thought and behavior patterns that have prevented your child from thriving in all areas of life.  Each family has individual needs that are considered through this process.  We need to first understand what is driving the behavior, introduce new positive coping skills, support the new behaviors, and then begin to practice those skills in everyday life through continued clinical support.  My continuum of services are designed to provide all of the necessary pieces to develop a successful treatment plan. All services are fully customizable! 

Consultation 

Initial meeting with the family to learn about their child, previous treatment, and how issues have impacted life, family, and school. This allows me to better understand a family's overall goals and timeline. This consultation allows the family to evaluate their needs and how my services may aid in reaching their goals. 

Assessment

I gather and evaluate information related to each child’s family dynamic, clinical needs, diagnostics, previous therapeutic interventions, peer relationships, and academics.  During this process, I speak with the professionals who know your child (teachers, family, clinical professionals).  I use this research to create an individualized placement plan.

Recommendations 

Recommendations may include outdoor therapy programs, therapeutic boarding schools, residential treatment centers, and local school options.   Options will be evaluated with the family to determine the best choice. I also assist in coordination of the program admission to allow for a smooth placement.

Family Liaison & Advocate

I am available to the family throughout the treatment stay. I am in regular contact with the therapist and other members of the treatment team.  I am available to answer questions and concerns that may arise.  I act as your family’s advocate throughout treatment. I also work closely with you and the program staff to coordinate a continuing care plan to prepare for transition.

Continuing Care

I assist with continuing care plans which may include a second placement.  Plans often include therapeutic supports, academic supports and activities.  I am closely connected with local clinical professionals ,treatment programs and academic supports.  I stay involved to support the family for 6 months post program discharge.

Local Support

I assist with local support services for those not interested in out-of- home placement.  I am knowledgable about therapeutic support options, including individual therapists, psychiatrists, groups, and specialty therapies.   I can also recommend schools in the area, as well as academic support services. Wellness services can include activities, camps, and volunteer opportunities.
