Therapeutic Consulting
When psychological or behavioral difficulties interfere with a client’s development and safety, it may be appropriate to consider additional therapeutic supports.
Some children and adolescents do not thrive in school or disrupt life at home, while others might shut down and not reach the same milestones as their peers. Many young adults attempt college only to have to return to a life of dependence and lack of productivity. Regardless of the issues at hand, a child, adolescent, or young adult who is stuck in an unproductive or dangerous cycle may need the help and respite of a therapeutic school, program, or team.
AO guides families by identifying the necessary level of treatment and the most appropriate supports for each client. Our process involves a thorough assessment of the client’s situation through an in-depth consultation with parents, a client interview, and consultation with current/past professionals and schools, in order to make the most appropriate recommendations. AO assists families in determining the appropriate path for the client, and offers monitoring throughout the duration of their treatment journey.
