Mentoring & Outpatient Therapy
Mentoring and outpatient therapy provides youth and adults with 1:1 time with a mental health or peer support professional that can assist them with processing and expressing feelings, learning coping strategies (ex. mindfulness), role rehearsals which allows the individual to practice new strategies, and understand the importance of self-care. This time can also be spent experiencing enrichment and exposure opportunities.
