Children’s Program (Ages 8-12)
Academic Services
To prevent disruption of academic needs, patients enrolled in our day programs are offered an education component through Silvergate Prep. This service prevents our patients from falling behind in their school work and provides them with academic structure and support. Patients learn in a therapeutic environment while receiving assistance with time management and assignment completion leading to a reduction in stress when they are ready to return to school.

Children’s Program
(Ages 8-12)
The Youth Program at GenPsych serves children 8-12 years old and is an outpatient program offering Partial Care treatment. Our program aims to help children struggling with various concerns related to mood, anxiety, and interpersonal conflict.
Before entering the program, each child participates in a comprehensive assessment to determine what interventions will be most successful. The GenPsych team then works collaboratively with your and your child to create an individualized treatment plan to meet your child’s unique goals.
The children’s program offers individual therapy and medication management as part of an ongoing collaboration with your child. Group therapy sessions make up a significant portion of your child’s treatment.
These groups consist of evidence-based mental health groups with an emphasis on engagement for our younger peer group.
