"Young people are often misunderstood, which is very unfortunate when they’re seeking help. It means a lot to have someone who actually hears them and cares about what they’re going through."
Kelli Washington, LPCC, Spring Health Provider
Only 20% of children with emotional, behavioral, or mental health issues receive care from a specialized mental healthcare provider.
The lack of access to early interventions, in the form of therapy and other mental health services, means that parents don’t know where to turn to get their child help. And a recent report reveals that mental health is a parent's biggest concern about their children’s wellbeing.
