Overview
The Counseling Center at LaSalle School offers outpatient services to youth (ages 5-26) along with their families, struggling with a wide range of behavioral and mental health concerns. These include:
- Anxiety
- Anxiety & Depression
- Grief & Loss issues
- Complex Trauma
- Addiction (both youth & family)
- Sexual Abuse (both victim & youth with problematic sexual behaviors)
The Counseling Center’s goal for expanding into outpatient mental health for the past 30 years has been to provide an array of services that will allow youth to remain in their homes and communities without further penetrating the legal or mental health system.
As a nationally recognized leader, LaSalle School has been providing residential care and educational services to youth for over 165+ years, earning a reputation as a leading provider of evidence-based and effective therapeutic programming for children and their families. Building on decades of experience in assessing and treating mental health and complex behavior disorders within our residential setting, LaSalle expanded services by adding a NYS Office of Mental Health (OMH) Children’s Clinic license and decades of experience in treating mental health and behavior disorders, LaSalle now offers outpatient mental health evaluation, counseling and psychiatric care to youth ages 5 to 26.

- Assessment and Treatment by highly experienced and licensed Mental Health and Substance Abuse Treatment professionals.
