An evaluation will be conducted by a Licensed Therapist and Registered Dietitian to determine which services are necessary. Individuals and, when appropriate, their families participate in the evaluation in conjunction with a licensed psychologist and psychiatrist. A specialized treatment plan will be
developed based on the comprehensive evaluation.

All services take place in a unique and comfortable home like setting. Day services (Full and Half) and outpatient care are conducted in the most natural setting possible to assist with the generalization of healthy behaviors to the client's home environment.
