Helping Children, Teens and their Families

Ryther helps children, birth through 19 years of age and their families to stabilize and improve interactions and communications in family and community relationships.

Our Outpatient Services Team of licensed and credentialed Master’s level therapists have extensive experience in the mental health field. Most therapists are trained in one or more evidence based practice, such as Trauma Focused-CBT and Parent Child Interactive Therapy.

Services include:

• Outpatient mental health assessments.
• Individual child and adolescent therapy.
• Family therapy.
• Parent support and coaching.
• Consultation/case management with schools, caseworkers, and professionals for enrolled children.
• Groups, when available, addressing issues such as anger management, social skills, grief and loss.
• Referrals to Ryther psychiatrists and/or psychologists for testing.

Ryther provides a broad array of programs designed to address the individual needs of adolescents using drugs and/or alcohol and their families, as well as those with co-occurring mental health issues.
