School-Based Mental Health Therapy

OVERVIEW

VEEMAH’s school-based therapy program provides therapeutic services to students who are experiencing social/emotional distress or have a mental health diagnosis. VEEMAH therapists implement strategies to ensure a practical and collaborative approach for service delivery in the schools.

Our therapists collaborate with teachers, school social workers, and staff to aid the student in working towards their individual goals. As a culturally competent organization, we provide services to clients within their cultural context as they need.

We are proud to provide school-based therapy services in the following school districts: Osseo Area Schools, Robbinsdale Area Schools, KIPP Minnesota Public School, and Brooklyn Center Community Schools.
