Summary Description:

Our Children and Family Treatment and Support Services (CFTSS) are designed to better meet the behavioral health needs at earlier junctures in a child/youth’s life to prevent the onset or progression of behavioral health conditions. These services aim to prevent the need for more restrictive and higher-intensity services for children and youth.

The Other Licensed Practitioner (OLP) is responsible for providing services to children and youth, ages 0-21, in their home or community-based settings. The clinical services provided under OLP are intended to help prevent the progression of behavioral health needs through early identification and intervention, and may be provided to children/youth in need of assessment for whom behavioral health conditions have not yet been diagnosed. Services are also intended to provide treatment to correct or ameliorate a delay or problem in developmental functioning and healthy relationships for children/youth with an existing diagnosis for whom flexible community-based treatment is needed. In addition, an assessment of needs may result in the recommendation of further medically necessary services, such as rehabilitative services. The Clinician will support recovery by providing services that reflect our deeply held values that include the recognition of individual rights of self-determination, choice, shared decision-making, and collaboration. When possible, the OLP Clinician will utilize evidence-based practices, always embracing a trauma-informed and person-centered approach. Services are delivered in a trauma-informed, culturally and linguistically competent manner.
