Therapeutic Services
My People Clinical Services offers a wide range of therapeutic services for individuals and families in need of support, treatment, or assessment by therapeutically trained individuals. The following descriptions provide an overview of our services:
Individual Therapy:
Individual psychotherapy focuses on men and boys from the community in need of support. Additional therapy can be provided to children, adolescents, and adults in an office setting to address emotional and/or behavioral problems.
My People Check-Ins:
The check-in is an opportunity to touch base with individuals without having them have to attend a formal therapy session. Every day, multiple times a day, individuals are impacted by different situations, pressures, interactions, and people that can change their moods in an instant. The check-ins are an easy way to see how someone is doing in real-time and provide a safe space or listening ear, as needed.
Family Therapy:
Family psychotherapy can be offered to parents/couples and their family members to nurture change and development of the whole family. Sessions are offered either at their residence or in an office setting. Family therapy is often offered in conjunction with other services provided by My People Clinical Services, including individual therapy, parent mentoring, therapeutic mentoring, etc., to target the resolution of crisis situations, support family well-being, and stabilize relationships to preserve the family unit.
