CK Behavioral Health Services
Services
CK Behavioral Health provides hope and opportunity for healing to children and families who are living with the day to day experience of mental illness and the impact of trauma. All our professional staff hold licenses or are certified per State requirements and use nationally recognized, evidence based tools to support you and your family.
Community Support Services
Through our Community Support Services program, we offer Trauma Informed Counseling, Skills Training, Medication Training, Routine Mental Health Case Management, Wraparound Case Management, and CANS Assessments.
In most cases these services are provided in your home but might also occur at a child’s school (with appropriate permissions in place) or at another location in the community that is appropriate to the needs of your family. The frequency and duration of services depends on the needs of your family and can range from as little as an hour every other week to several hours a day. In severe cases, we recommend more frequent and intense services initially and then tapering down to a schedule that is less frequent over time.
The center piece services provided through our Community Support Services program are the Skills Training and the Wraparound Case Management. Learn more about Skills Training, how Skills Training work alongside counseling, and the evidence based curricula we use in Skills Training further down this page.
