Mental Health Program
Mental Health Program clinicians serve low-income children and families living within the Metro Service Area of Los Angeles, providing both individual and family therapy in a kid-friendly office where young clients can feel safe, secure, and welcome.
QueensCare’s Mental Health Program has been subcontracting with Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles for over a decade to provide services to children and young adults up to the age of 26 focused on anxiety, trauma, depression, and disruptive behaviors. The program has helped thousands of low-income and under-insured children and families across Los Angeles County.
All of QueensCare’s operational programs partner with other local organizations or community sites to focus on concerns commonly faced by locals in the area and offer services catering to those needs. For the Mental Health Program, this can result in a workshop or series of group therapy sessions aimed at themes and topics of concern raised by locals who frequent these community sites.
In 2023, QueensCare launched its inaugural internship program with the goal of educating future mental health clinicians and familiarizing them with the needs of the lower-income communities we support, which face a significant demand for mental health care. Interns are led by a field instructor who guides and supports them to learn through a compassion-informed approach. This will provide interns with a well-rounded learning experience of providing mental health services to clients from different walks of life. They will learn to deliver trauma-informed, culturally appropriate therapeutic services to clients, and collaborate with other professionals in the field.
