We are a team of more than 100 dedicated mental health professionals—including child psychiatrists, psychiatric advanced practice nurses, therapists, therapeutic behavior specialists, Early Childhood Mental Health Consultants, and support staff—working together to support the well‑being of our community.

Our work is strengthened by the commitment of our Board of Trustees and the guidance of our experienced Executive Leadership Team. Our Clinical Managers play a vital role as well, ensuring that clients and staff receive thoughtful, caring, and comprehensive services whenever they engage with our agency. These leaders train and develop their teams, stay closely connected to the communities we serve, and bring a wide range of clinical training and expertise to their work.
