Our Mission
Behavioral Health – Children and Teens

Family & Children's Agency offers a wide range of therapeutic services through our Behavioral Health department. We are experienced in helping adults, adolescents, children, and families through times of crisis or transition.

Outpatient Therapy

Our therapists work in a variety of treatment modalities: individual, family, and/or group therapy, and we are committed to the personal growth of our clients, encouraging collaboration in a safe, respectful environment.

We work with individuals and families experiencing mental health and other challenges, including depression, anxiety, grief and loss, family problems, child and adolescent concerns, and life transitions.

Medication management is available to patients engaged in therapy with FCA.

Services are provided for children age 5 and up. For information about Outpatient Therapy at FCA for adults, click here.

Multi-Systemic Therapy (MST)

MST is a community and evidence-based in-home program that empowers adolescents and families to improve their overall behavior and provide caregivers with skills to solve current and future problems. MST uses a combination of interventions and treatment options designed to meet the individual needs of adolescents ages 12-17 and their families with the goal of helping the teen remain safely in their home and community. The program includes drug testing at intake and throughout treatment.
