Parenting and all the pressure we feel to do the right thing for our children can quickly become overwhelming, especially with vulnerability factors, such as experiences of trauma, living in a chaotic environment, or living with a serious mental illness. These additional levels of stress can make it extremely difficult for families to feel effective in caring for their child. You can be assured, there is hope and we are here to help. The professional staff at Burrell has years of success working with families, children and adolescents. We are here to support your family, help you address the issues that contribute to a stressful home life and help you develop connections and healthy practices that will impact your child's success at school, at home and in the community.

Overview

Burrell’s Residential Services provide much more than conventional treatment—they immerse youth in evidenced-based best practices offered in a natural home and school setting. By coordinating targeted therapeutic programs and the normalcy of home and school environments, we are able to help youth develop trust, build self-esteem, and actively participate in their behavioral health treatment.

How it Works

Youth enrolled in Burrell’s Residential Services typically have a history of trauma and challenging social environments. Before admission to our residential program, we complete a thorough assessment to make a determination on the appropriate level of care. Our philosophy is that we always provide the least restrictive level of care that is appropriate. While youth are in our residential care, services provided may include: individual therapy, family therapy, group therapy, psychiatric services, case management, nursing, and educational support.
