About Valley Behavioral Health
Valley Behavioral Health’s Children, Youth & Family Services is situated in Salt Lake City, conveniently close to I-15 and a short distance from Liberty Park. The center specializes in the treatment of autism, ADHD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and various behavioral challenges affecting children and adolescents. The dedicated team offers a range of services, including outpatient treatment, partial hospitalization programs (PHP), and after-school support. The Carmen B. Pingree Autism Center is recognized for delivering top-notch autism treatment through evidence-based approaches.
Utilizing techniques such as applied behavior analysis (ABA) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), therapists focus on fostering emotional development, enhancing behavior, and equipping youth with essential skills. Services encompass individual, group, and family therapy, alongside social skills training and coping mechanisms. Qualified clinicians collaborate closely with families, providing necessary training, valuable resources, and crisis management to ensure progress continues outside of a clinical setting.
Programs like Adolescents in Motion (AIM) and Kids Intensive Day Services (KIDS) are designed to help young people stay out of hospitals and remain connected to their communities. The Acute Children’s Extended Services (ACES) program offers after-school care for children aged 5 to 12. Throughout the academic year, the center collaborates with local schools to provide educational support, and during the summer, engages kids in exciting field trips and activities. In Tooele County, clinicians actively bring services to schools, enhancing accessibility and support for students.
