Outpatient Psychiatry & Therapy
Helping kids grow, cope and move forward
Growing up isn’t always easy. Stress, anxiety, big emotions, school pressure, family changes, or past experiences can sometimes feel overwhelming—for kids, teens and the adults who care about them.
Our pediatric clinicians provide outpatient therapy and psychiatric services for children and adolescents through age 21, providing a supportive space to talk, learn skills and build confidence. Whether you’re a parent looking for guidance or a child or teen who wants help navigating what you’re feeling, our team is here to help.
Hundreds of exceptional Michigan-licensed professionals provide therapy, psychiatry and counseling throughout Pine Rest. We’ll work with you to find one who’s a good fit for your child, teen or family. If you need to switch providers for any reason, we’ll help you find a better fit in our network at no additional charge.
If you’re unsure whether outpatient care is the right place to start, our team can help you think through options and next steps.
