What is School-Based Mental Health?

A School-Based Mental Health Program (SBMH) is like having a mental health office inside a school. A range of services are available and provided by licensed, clinical therapists. All services are private and confidential.

Why Have Mental Health Programs in the School?

  • Children develop coping skills that may prevent them from developing long-term problems

  • Solution-oriented therapy provides relief from symptoms earlier rather than later, thus improving the quality of life experiences

  • Improves academic performance and personal relationships with family and friends

  • Eliminates barriers to accessing these services by making them available in the school
