Clinical and Behavioral Health Consultation


Through our innovative consultation models, The Child Center extends its reach by lending its expertise in mental health to other organizations and government offices. In this way, they can reach their own communities with the skilled, compassionate, and sustainable care that all people deserve.

At Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) Field Offices, The Child Center of NY’s Clinical Consultation teams assist in training child protective staff and assessing families regarding mental health, substance use, and domestic violence concerns. Through consultations and trainings, our Clinical Consultation teams touch the lives of more than 30,000 families a year, helping them develop the tools to raise their children in a safe and nurturing environment. Our recommendations and referrals help instill confidence in caregivers’ ability to cope with life’s challenges, which in turn promotes positive and constructive parenting and lets their children know they are supported, safe, and deeply loved.

In addition, our Behavioral Health Consultation teams partner with other community-based organizations to offer therapy and other mental health services. The way this works is that The Child Center opens a New York State licensed mental health satellite in a collaborating agency’s location. The Child Center provides clinical supervision, regulatory training, therapy model training, and electronic health record access and training, as well as billing and operational follow-up.

At The Child Center, we know that trust in the community is one of the most important components of service. Through our behavioral health consultation model, we can lend our expertise to other organizations that have built trust in their communities and increase our reach to serve even more children, adults, families, and communities.
