School-Based Behavioral Telehealth

What is School-Based Behavioral Telehealth?

Children can benefit from integrated mental health services while at school through telehealth technology. Our school-based therapist works with each child to support emotional, behavioral, and social challenges.

  • Anxiety
  • Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
  • Autism
