Intensive Home-Based Therapy

The Intensive Home-Based Therapy program (IHBT) works with youth ages 7-17, who have been diagnosed with severe emotional problems and are not functioning well in many areas of their lives.

These can include:

• Disruption in family and interpersonal relationships due to youth’s emotional state
• Truancy, frequent suspensions, or expulsion risk at school
• Severe depression, anxiety or psychosis
• History of suicide gestures, hospitalizations, outpatient therapy or other intensive services
• Juvenile Court involvement
• Substance abuse problems
• Risk for out of home placement

IHBT seeks to strengthen youth and families and helps to facilitate stability, promote healthier relationships and resilience through strength-based and need-focused treatment.

Services include:

• Counseling
• Case management
• Psychiatric services

Comprehensive services are matched to each family's presenting needs, strengths and circumstances to address mental health, substance abuse, school, family, peer, and community issues.

Our Approach

Individuals who are severely emotionally disturbed (SED) are welcomed in an integrated treatment approach that provides the necessary services and supports that enable the client to live and function successfully in the least restrictive most, normative environment. The service is time-limited with intensive delivery at a minimum of three (3) hours per week. Crisis response is provided 24/7. Using a risk and protective factor framework, treatment includes active safety planning and monitoring to reduce risk.
