Mental health services are offered by a team of Psychiatrists, Licensed Clinical Social Workers and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselors who evaluate children and adolescents experiencing emotional, behavioral and developmental problems.
All Department of Health therapists are trauma trained and certified. Recognizing that substance use disorders and mental health concerns are often co-occurring, AFS staff works with patients and their families to create holistic treatment plans that address their challenges related to substance use within the larger context of their lives.
Staff provide information and services, including:
- diagnostic evaluations
- drug and alcohol assessments
- individual, family and group therapy
- medication monitoring
- urine screening
If a patient requires a higher level of care, appropriate referrals are made.
AFS accepts Maryland Medicaid and CareFirst Insurance. Costs for services will be discussed at initial screening.
