School based services allows for accessibility to mental health services for students and school staff members during the school day in the convenience of their district.  This opportunity eliminates barriers of transportation, therapist availability, and accessibility to mental health services. Ozaukee Community Therapies has partnerships with many schools and programs throughout the state of Wisconsin offering mental health services through a school based satellite mental health clinic.  The clinic is located within the school and provides individual and group mental health services to students at the school.  Students are consumers of the clinic and the cost of their counseling is covered by their insurance or through private pay (we offer a competitive private pay option) that is covered by the student.  The clinic and school district partnership offers mental health services at no cost to the district.  For more information please contact Erin Perez at 414-559-0050.
