NYFS School Based Mental Health services offer therapy in a school setting where youth have the greatest opportunity to regularly access the help they need and receive support when in crisis.
Staff provide individual and group therapy to address issues related to trauma, depression, anxiety, and other concerns to elementary, middle, and high school youth in 10 schools across the Centennial, Mounds View, and St. Anthony-New Brighton school districts. To further reduce barriers to care, we ensure youth can access these trauma-informed and culturally-responsive services on a sliding fee-scale.
While our therapists collaborate with school staff to support their clients’ mental health needs in the classroom, they also serve as a resource for schools, sharing their expertise while helping staff attend to the mental health needs of the school as a whole. This helps create better social, emotional, and academic outcomes for students, teachers, and schools.
If you have a child in the Centennial, Mounds View or St. Anthony-New Brighton school district and are interested in enrolling in School Based Mental Health Services, start here.
