In-Home Therapy
Embark Behavioral Health provides healing and nurturing in-home therapy to help your child and family address and overcome the mental health issues that are impacting your everyday life.
What Is In-Home Therapy?
In-home therapeutic services provide consistent, structured care for children and families at home, school or in a safe place in the community – where licensed clinicians conduct sessions with both your child and family in a more relaxed setting – rather than in a typical office setting.
The goal of in-home therapy services is to improve your child’s ability to better function in the community and home in an effort to reduce potential out-of-home placements, such as hospitalization or residential treatment, or help the child when transitioning home from an out-of-home program.
What Services Does In-Home Therapy Offer?
Licensed therapists and clinicians begin with a comprehensive evaluation after which an in-home therapy treatment plan is developed with the child and family to guide therapeutic services.
The treatment plan is reviewed regularly to evaluate progress and updated as needed.
In-home therapy treatment plans generally include:
- 24-hour crisis support and response
- Comprehensive assessment and evaluation
- Family-based treatment that meets your unique set of needs
- Individualized treatment plans
- Parental coaching and skills development
- Safety and coping skills training and development
- Therapeutic services delivered in the home and community

How Embark In-Home Therapy Works
Embark offers a support system designed to help preteens, teens and young adults maintain good mental health as they experience life changes and struggle to deal with a variety of behavioral and emotional challenges.
We can be of value by reducing out-of-home placements for treatment or by helping your child transition home from an out-of-home program.
Using a "Family Systems" approach, we provide two clinicians, both with masters and/or doctorate degrees in the mental health field. One clinician is assigned as the clinical mentor, to work with your child, and one is assigned as a parent coach, to work with you, the parents.
We believe that working with the family system as a whole is essential to the healing process. As a result, your child and family members better manage and understand their responses to situations that are putting stress on the family dynamic.
Our sessions occur in the community, rather than in an office. Your child's clinical mentor can meet with your child in-person at home, school, their favorite spot in town, or virtually in the comfort of home. Our community-based approach allows for interacting in real-life situations so that children are supported in managing real-world challenges with real-world solutions.
In addition to weekly scheduled sessions, family clinicians show up for families in real-time – when they need guidance and support the most.
This strong in-the-moment support helps lead to lasting, positive change.
Why Our In-Home Therapy Program Is Successful
Our "Family Systems" approach supports the entire family, encouraging communication, connection, continuous growth and trust.
Your child gains confidence and self-esteem and learns about healthy relationships with consistent interaction with their clinical mentor.
As skills are implemented, boundaries are established and communication channels open. We are here to cultivate and support a healthy family system and facilitate positive and sustainable change.
