Behavioral Health Services

Our Behavioral Health Program

The Granite State Children’s Alliance Behavioral Health Program provides on-site behavioral health services at their Child Advocacy Centers (Belknap, Cheshire and Hillsborough Counties). The program provides trauma-informed, licensed behavioral health clinicians who will work with you and your child to assess the impact of any identified traumas your child has experienced, as well as any other current mental health-related concerns you may have for your child.

Our clinicians will discuss treatment options that best support you and your child’s needs. Referrals may include psychiatric evaluations, individual therapy, family therapy, mentorship programs, etc.

CACs without on-site behavioral health services work closely with caregivers to ensure that children receive the same services from trauma informed behavioral health clincians that work in community-based setting, private practices, or in-home settings.

Healing is a Process

CAC Professionals and our multi-disciiplinary partners understand that child abuse and neglect and childhood trauma can have significant impact on child victims, their caregivers, and siblings.

Engaging with trauma-informed behavioral health services is an essential part of the healing process for all involved. CAC Family Support Specialist will work with cargivers to connect children and families with on-site or community based behavioral health services.
