Every journey begins with a single, right step.
Right Step Youth & Family Services provides youth- and family-centered behavioral health services designed to promote stability, resilience, emotional wellness, and success at home, at school, and in the community.
Meeting every youth where they are.
Every young person deserves support that recognizes their strengths, respects their experiences, and meets them where they are. Right Step offers individualized outpatient therapy and structured therapeutic rehabilitation programming for eligible youth and families.
Services focus on emotional regulation, behavioral stability, trauma recovery, healthy relationships, problem-solving, life skills, and greater independence.
A full ecosystem of support.
All ServicesOutpatient Therapy
Individual, family, and group therapy guided by individualized assessment and treatment planning.
Evidence-based approaches including CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing, solution-focused interventions, and behavioral modification strategies tailored to each youth's needs.
Therapeutic Rehabilitation
Structured, group-based programming for youth who need more support than routine outpatient care.
Up to 15 hours per week of skill-based behavioral health intervention building coping, emotional regulation, social skills, problem-solving, and independent living abilities.
Life Skills Development
Practical skill development covering daily living, community integration, and independence.
Activities include anger management, coping-skills training, social skills, psychoeducation, nutrition education, self-esteem building, and trauma-informed interventions.
Care Coordination
Collaborative support across caregivers, schools, providers, DCBS, and managed care.
With appropriate consent, we coordinate with the youth's full support system—caregivers, IEP teams, prescribers, DCBS workers, foster-care teams, and MCO care coordinators.
