CET has been a tremendous help for my son. He now has the tools that he can utilize when he is faced with a stressful situation either in school or at home. I know that without the guidance he received at CET, he would not be in the place he is today.
The Center provides research-based techniques and strategies designed to help your child handle emotional stressors. The clinician we worked with was very respectful, sensitive, and caring.
We were extremely fortunate that a trusted advisor recommended CET. From the moment of the intake phone call, it was clear that it was the right place to be. Our first visit and every subsequent visit confirmed and deepened that first impression of dedication and excellence.
Long after treatment at the CET rescued us from crisis, both my son and I continue to use the skills we were taught there, to the betterment of both our lives.
We partner with pediatricians to assist children and teenagers with outpatient mental health needs. Pediatricians are experts at handling the physical health needs of children, and we help fill in the gap for their mental health needs.
