Program Overview
BHSN's School-Based Mental Health Services are a direct example of our commitment to expanding care into non-traditional, highly accessible settings. By placing our qualified clinicians right inside the school, we dramatically decrease the typical barriers families face in accessing traditional therapy appointments.
Our primary focus is creating consistent, high-quality treatment that leads to symptom stabilization and a significant decrease in missed classroom time. We work in partnership with school staff to improve communication and ensure that the student's mental well-being is fully integrated with their educational success.
