Parenting is no easy feat! These years of raising young children and teenagers can sometimes feel like the most exhausting and frustrating, and that's perfectly normal. There's no shame in reaching out to learn new ways to connect and engage with your kids. Supporting them through every tough and uncertain moment can be draining for you too.

School-based therapy is a convenient way to access mental health treatment for your child. Beyond just accessibility, this unique model fosters vital collaboration.

Problematic Sexual Behaviors–Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (PSB-CBT) is an evidence-based treatment for youth who have engaged in or are at risk for problematic sexual behaviors. Offered in both individual and group formats, PSB-CBT helps children and teens develop healthy boundaries, emotional control, and safe decision-making skills while strengthening caregiver supervision and support.

Group sessions are held through the Rock Island County Child Advocacy Center for two age groups: 7–12 and 13–17. If it is determined that group therapy is not appropriate, individual PSB-CBT is available.

Our experienced therapist conducts thorough psychosexual evaluations. This is a specialized assessment meant to better understand an individual's sexual development, behavior, attitudes, and potential risk factors. Often used in legal or clinical settings, this evaluation helps guide treatment planning, risk management, and decision-making.
