First and foremost, we are a team of more than 150 mental health professionals – child psychiatrists, psychiatric advanced practice nurses, therapists, therapeutic behavior specialists and support staff. 

This enables us to serve more than 8,000 individuals every year, wherever they are – in our office locations, in schools, in pediatricians’ offices, in childcare centers and in client homes. 

However, our work could not be possible without our caring and committed Board of Trustees, our experienced Executive Leadership Team, clinical managers, and senior clinical consultants.
