THERAPY AND FAMILY SERVICES

GROUP THERAPY

Ryther’s group therapy utilizes effective, evidence-based techniques. Groups are offered virtually or in person at Ryther's main campus. To be eligible for any group, your child, adolescent, or young adult must first be seeing a Ryther therapist to join a group.

MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES

We use evidence-based treatments to treat children, youth, and young adults struggling with challenges including anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-harm, trauma, and more. Some of our treatment includes CBT, DBT, trauma-focused CBT, and Seven Challenges.

THE SAGE PROGRAM

Specialized IOP or PHP treatment for youth experiencing mood disorders or trauma-related emotional stress. The IOP offers part-time support while the PHP offers full-day support. Both programs utilize evidence-based treatment modalities such as DBT.

THE WILLOW PROGRAM

Specialized IOP or PHP treatment for neurodivergent youth experiencing anxiety and OCD. The IOP offers part-time support while the PHP offers full-day support. Both programs utilize evidence-based therapies, including group games, art, tabletop gaming, and more.

DBT INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT

Ryther’s Dialectical Behavior Therapy Intensive Outpatient (DBT IOP) provides a level of care that falls between traditional outpatient therapy and inpatient hospitalization involving therapy, psychoeducation, and skill-building activities for youth with acute mental health needs.

EATING DISORDER SERVICES

Our Eating Disorder Services provide individualized care, meal support, and family therapy for youth ages 8-16, helping them build skills for lasting recovery. Treatment is thoughtfully tailored to meet each child’s unique needs and support the entire family.

FIRS PROGRAM

 Family Intervention and Restorative Services (FIRS) is a collaborative approach with community and court-based partners to reduce youth involvement in the criminal justice system by offering alternative solutions to juvenile detention for domestic violence incidents.

FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOSIS

FEP focuses on providing critically needed comprehensive treatment to individuals who are experiencing their first episode of psychosis. Mental health staff assists clients with identifying their personal goals and needs for wellness and recovery.

INFANT & EARLY CHILDHOOD

Ryther strives to meet the mental health needs of infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and their families. We work with the caregiver and child together to offer psychoeducation about development and provide parent coaching to help caregivers be more effective.

PSYCHIATRIC PROVIDERS

Ryther ARNPs provide evaluation and treatment of attentional disorders, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, substance use as well as behavioral and relational problems in youth ages 2 to 25. Clients in specific programs may be eligible for psychiatry up to age 25.

PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT

* Not taking new clients at this time *

Psychological assessments allow us to better understand how the child thinks and understands, the strengths and challenges of their brain, and ability to understand the world.

RESIDENTIAL THERAPY

* Returning July 2026 *

Ryther's new residential therapy program will provide the support necessary to treat anxiety, OCD, and mood disorders through evidence-based care, art, and hands-on activities.

SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER

Our SUD program offers Standard Drug and Alcohol Assessments, Outpatient Counseling (Level 1), Seven Challenges Groups for those engaged in SUD treatment at Ryther, and Co-Occurring Program for those struggling with mental health and substance use disorder.

WRAPAROUND SERVICES

Wraparound with Intensive Services (WISe) is for youth with complex behavioral health needs that would benefit from a higher level of care or is at risk of out of home placement. WISe requires a time commitment from families of at least 10.5 hours per month.

BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INTEGRATION

Ryther therapists partner with primary care physicians at several medical clinics throughout Seattle. Clinicians assist in short term, solution-focused therapy for youth and their families. Collaborative care and effective referrals to on-going care is our focus.
