Through education, advocacy, empowerment, and treatment, MHA helps everyone face their challenges and make lasting positive changes. Parents today are faced with the challenge of raising children in an increasingly complicated world. We offer a number of programs that promote positive parenting and support parents with this difficult, yet rewarding, task.
Mental health is about more than our struggles - it is our ability to realize our capabilities. To connect with others. To build strong relationships and achieve our goals. The first five years of a child's life are when 90% of brain growth occurs. The key to a child's success tomorrow is preparing children's mental and emotional resilience now.

I loved that it was a walk-in clinic that sees children of all ages without an appointment. They are able to do a very thorough assessment of your child and give a professional recommendation on what steps to take next. If your child is having a mental health crisis and your not sure what to do this place is a life-saver. Your child can receive immediate one one one services vs sitting in the E.R. for hours waiting to be seen. They not only provide an assessment of your child(so you can decide if they need to be admitted to a facility, is it safe for them to come home, do they need to follow up
