Outpatient Therapy
Creating Bonds & Building Social-Emotional Well-Being for Children
Our outpatient therapy program provides in-home services to children ages 0 to 19 and their caregivers to promote mental wellness, social and emotional well-being, and positive caregiver-child relationships. We work to meet the needs of children, adolescents and adults so they feel safe and connected to each other and their communities.
Services include an assessment, diagnosis and developing plans for care that utilize evidence-based treatment. We currently offer this program in these Nebraska cities: Omaha, Bellevue, Chalco, Elkhorn, Gretna, La Vista, Millard, Papillion and Ralston.
This program provides:
- A caring, highly-trained, trauma-informed therapist
- Home- and community-based services
