Group therapy consists of small groups concentrating on the many cognitive and social deficits that are prevalent in teens with continued psychosis. This care promotes recovery and functioning, enhances quality of life, and educates families.
We teach teens using evidence-based modalities for people with psychosis, including computer-assisted cognitive remediation to improve mental speed and focus, how to test conclusions through metacognitive training, skills for social cognition, as well as individual resilience and distress tolerance skills.

Our California OnTrack for Teens program is designed for youth ages 13–17 who have commercial insurance (i.e., not Medi-Cal).
To help us determine eligibility and provide the most appropriate support, we ask that a brief pre-screening be completed first.

We collaborate with an individual’s existing care teams without disturbing those trusted relationships. Our teen staff is familiar with school coordination, IEP goals and meetings, as well as appropriate accommodation requests for teens with early and later-stage psychosis. Many of these supports are part of our overall teen case management for all teens participating in our care offerings.
We offer all services in-person and remotely, and family psychoeducation is available virtually to all families with participating teens. Family psychoeducation is provided through a 16-week multifamily course to learn about the illness, recovery, and communication for a healthier long-term relationship. Families are encouraged to attend this 16-week course, as we have found that success is often directly correlated to family participation.

The eligibility verification assessment is our gold-standard in-depth assessment of the client's clinical presentation and symptoms. It is a 3-4 hour interview process that may or may not be broken up into two sessions depending on the client's ability to sit through long appointment times. Psychosocial functioning, psychosis, mood, substance use, and trauma is assessed during the interview, in addition to record review. Conversely, the phone screen focuses on demographics, social and role functioning, more general questions about mental health and developmental history, suicidality, substance-use, and psychotic and mood symptoms.
