PROVIDING MALES YOUTHS WITH POSITIVE EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL SUPPORT.
Our Services
Strengthening Our Sons, Inc. is also a Community Behavioral Health agency. Our counseling services provide a very unique service, that’s specialized in catering to the needs of adolescence and teen boys. We also provide their families with counseling to help support a health environment for boys.
Our Care
Strengthening Our Sons Behavioral Health includes a staff of highly skilled licensed clinicians and support staff members. They are well-experienced in using a variety of Cognitive-Behavioral techniques and treatment approaches to address adolescence and youth who are experiencing behavioral, social, emotional, and academic difficulties.
We begin with an assessment to determine and clarify the presenting needs of each individual and if there is a need for additional services. The assessment process includes using interviews and questionnaires to gather historical and current relevant information; determining the individual’s strengths, needs, abilities and preferences; formulating an opinion about the concerns; and developing service recommendations to address those concerns.
If indicated, counseling services and peer support follows the assessment process. Our counseling sessions focus on enhancing each boy’s current strengths and developing opportunities for improvement and personal growth.
Our outpatient services offer individual, family and group counseling at home, at school or in the community depending on the needs of the youth and the family.
Let our behavioral health team wrap your son and family in our unique services that can bring about the hope and healing you have been looking for.
