Services We Provide

  • School-Based Mental Health Therapy: The SWSS mental health team (which includes licensed clinicians, associate clinicians, and supervised interns) provides direct Tier 3 interventions, including individualized mental health therapy to identified SBCUSD students during the school day at their assigned schools. Therapy services may address concerns, such as: anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, and other mental health needs through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, play therapy, and other psychotherapy modalities.  School COunselors also provide short-term individual crisis counseling and group interventions and supports to students.  Together, SWSS Clinicians and School Counselors promote student well-being and strengthen student social-emotional and mental health needs.

  • Clinical Assessment & Diagnosis: The clinician utilizes assessments to identify student's needs

  • Behavioral Support & Case Management: To address behavioral concerns, the clinician will connect with the Tier 3 team at the school to coordinate therapy and ensure targeted interventions (such as Emotion Management and self-regulation strategies) are aligned.

  • Referrals for Community Partner Support: The team connects students to community mental health partners (such as Victor Community Support Services) for specialized care, which includes extended individual therapy, family therapy, and comprehensive wrap-around supports.
