Your First Appointment
During your child’s first visit to Live Well Family Counseling Services, Inc., our team will conduct a one-hour intake assessment by a licensed therapist. We will review your child’s health history and complete a psychiatric evaluation to determine the level of care your child needs. A parent or guardian is required to accompany the child to the appointment.
By the end of the appointment, you’ll receive a personalized treatment plan based on your child’s needs.
Treatment
Treatment programs will typically begin one week after the intake assessment. Before we start any level of treatment, our licensed therapist will review with your child and guardian/ parents about the details of the program. Your child’s treatment program will include approaches that best suit their personality and needs, such as:
- Individual and group therapy
- Parent groups and family meetings
- Safety planning
- Case Management
- Daily check-ins
Programs are organized by age and developmental stage to optimize your child’s group experience. In our partial hospitalization program and intensive outpatient programs, families are encouraged to attend at least one weekly group session to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment program.
