Families with children and youth (6-18) who are referred to the program by Children and Family Services of San Mateo County Human Services Agency.

Therapeutic Mental Health
Edgewood provides mental health services aimed at reducing the re-incidence of child neglect and abuse by helping clients and their caregivers nurture and develop skills necessary to live and function in a healthy environment. We use proven techniques like Trauma-Focused CBT and Brief Strategic & Structural Family Therapy techniques, as well as other evidenced-based treatment models.

Case Management
In addition to family, collateral, group, and individual psychotherapy, clinicians on the team provide extensive case management to support our clients and families. We work closely with Social Workers, County Mental Health and other community providers to insure that our clients’ needs are served.

Medication Support
We offer psychiatric evaluation and ongoing medication support services through our ongoing partnership with the University of California San Francisco Department of Psychiatry, Langley Porter Psychiatric Institute.

Family Conferencing
Similar to all Edgewood programs, we keep family at the heart of our work. In addition, we utilize Edgewood’s Family Conferencing model, in our efforts to keep family at the center of our collaborative work with youth, families and outside providers.

Bilingual Services
Our clinical team consists of several bilingual therapists, and we strive to maintain highest standards of cultural sensitivity and competency. Services are offered in English and Spanish. Interpretation services are also provided, on as needed basis.
