The Community Services Program offers various therapeutic interventions to adolescents 12 to 18 years of age and their families.  The program operates out of the Administration building.  Following the initial assessment, recommendations for the type of intervention are made.  The adolescent and/or family are then placed on a wait list.

The Community Services Program offers Individual, Family, Couple, Group and Art Therapy.  There are various groups that are offered which include Adolescent, Parents and Multiple Family Groups.

The Adolescent Group is for those who require assistance with peer relations and social skills.  This is an open-ended group and the members are encouraged to discuss their own individual issues.

The Parents Group also meets weekly and is a place for parents to discuss issues related to their adolescents and themselves.  It may be attended by one or both parents.

The Multiple Family Group consists of up to four families who meet on a weekly basis.  The families’ issues are discussed using a group format so that parents/adolescents can give priority in assisting one another and support each other with common issues.

The Community Services Program also has a Psychometrist who is available to do any required testing (intellectual, academic).  The Psychometrist consults with a Psychologist regularly regarding further testing of a psychological nature.

A Consulting Psychiatrist is also on staff to provide psychiatric consultation and treatment planning as needed.

Art Therapy is a form of therapy offered to adolescents who have difficulty expressing themselves verbally.
