What You Can Expect

  • Once your child or adolescent is accepted into services, one of our clinicians conducts a diagnostic assessment to help us best understand your child’s strengths and areas of concern.
  • Recommendations for treatment are then carefully reviewed with parents and/or guardians and youth.
  • Services are designed to meet the specific treatment goals identified by the family and clinician.
  • We work closely with the child or adolescent, family, primary care provider, school personnel and others to ensure that assessment and treatment are clinically appropriate and comprehensive.

Services Offered

In addition to diagnostic evaluations, we offer the following services.

(i)no one will be denied access to services due to inability to pay; and (ii) there is a discounted/sliding fee schedule available based on family size and income.

Urgent Care

If your child is experiencing a mental health crisis, UR Medicine is available to help with the following resources. View Steps for Seeking Help for Your Child.

Individual Therapy

Our clinicians provide a wide array of evidence-based treatments for children and adolescents. Families are always involved in treatment—and may participate in sessions with their child and/or through separate parent consultation sessions.

Group Therapy

Group therapy provides an excellent opportunity for youth to learn and practice skills with support and coaching from group leaders. During group sessions, children and adolescents connect with peers to work on shared problems together. We offer group therapy for youth with a wide range of needs and challenges.

Medication Support

We provide initial psychiatric and medication evaluations and consultations, as well medication management and follow-up care.
