School Based Outpatient
Empowering Student Well-Being: Behavioral Health Support Within Schools
What is School Based Therapy?
School Based outpatient therapy is mental health therapy provided at school during the course of the student’s day. The student is referred to a school based therapist who will see the student during the school day for individual therapy for identified behavioral health problems.
Therapy can be provided in the school setting while maintaining the same confidentiality standards of traditional outpatient therapists.
Referrals for school based services can be made by school personnel, the SAP team, the student, other CRCSI programs, and/or a family member.
