Support Groups
Jay's House, Inc., uses Positive Group Interaction (PGI),
as its primary treatment modality. This strength-based approach is especially effective with adolescents, mobilizing peer influence to build positive decision-making, social skills, self-discipline and character. Each youth's responsibility for supporting others in the attainment of individual goals is reinforced in every aspect of the program.
Our support staff assists each youth with meeting complex needs during and after their program. The support group focuses on, but is not limited to, the following areas:
- Effective Communication
- Emotional Stability
- Social Awareness
Creative Development Programs
Counseling
Jay's House, Inc., provides group, individual and family counseling, as well as psychiatric and psychological services for each youth. Counselors provide weekly group and/or individual treatment. Our staff members are critical facilitators in the growth process and constructively use the youth's daily living experiences to implement positive development.
Upon the youth's arrival, they meet with our staff counselors and set a preliminary goal. Following their registration and initial assessment, the youth then has two (2) weeks to focus and identify the issues and actions that brought them to Jay's House, Inc.
