School-Based Therapy

Centerstone offers School-Based Therapy in more than 750 public schools. Providing integrated mental health treatment for children and adolescents, School-Based Therapists work within preschool, elementary, middle and high school facilities, helping students overcome behavioral, emotional or social problems that interfere with success at school and at home.

We help students with issues such as:

  • Aggression
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Isolation
  • Poor social skills
  • Stress
  • Trauma
  • Truancy

Our therapists help students reduce disruptive behavior and improve self-monitoring skills. Integrated as members of the school team, we can serve youth in a familiar setting, offering minimal interruption to their school day.

School-Based Therapy Services include:

  • Individual and group therapy
  • Family counseling
  • Risk assessments, as needed (suicidal or homicidal)
  • Specialized training and support services for parents and teachers
  • Collaboration with other community providers
  • Linkage to additional community resources
