Why Families Choose THS for Youth Mental Health

20+ Years of Trust

Serving youth and families in the Seattle area since 2006 with proven, evidence-based care.

Care Begins with Listening

Every young person starts with an assessment, so treatment is planned around their specific needs and goals.

Family-Centered Approach

Young people do best with a supportive adult involved. We work with parents and caregivers who are ready to participate.

Confidential Support Available

Teens can request privacy in their care. We’ll explain options during the assessment.

LGBTQ+ Affirming Care

Welcoming, specialized support for queer and trans youth, including counselors with shared lived experience.

Most Insurance Accepted

We accept Apple Health/Medicaid and most commercial insurance plans. We also offer a sliding fee scale so you only pay what you can afford.

What Our Clients Say

The mental health program helped my daughter a lot. It really helped her develop a new way of looking at the world and create a healthy new future.

Precious

It is so important to talk about things, and sometimes you don’t even realize you need to talk about things until you get in with your counselor, and you just start pouring out feelings. Your counselor helps you put things in perspective and helps you deal with the issues you’re facing.

Kelly

I’m so glad this program was here for me. I was struggling with a lot of issues, and my counselor helped me work through them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every young person begins with an assessment so our team can understand their needs and recommend the right level of care — whether that’s individual counseling, a skills-based group, or a wraparound care approach.

Yes — our Everett center offers a structured, skills-based group program that helps teens build coping skills over time, with the option to add individual or family therapy. Our Seattle center focuses on individual counseling, psychiatry, and wraparound support (WISe). During the assessment, we’ll help figure out which approach fits best.

We recognize that parent and caregiver involvement makes a real difference. We offer support and coaching for parents who are ready to participate, and we’ll work with your family to figure out what that looks like.

In Washington State, young people 13 and older can consent to outpatient mental health counseling on their own. If you’re a teen reaching out for yourself, we can talk through what that looks like and what (if anything) would involve your parents.

We accept Apple Health/Medicaid and most commercial insurance plans (except Aetna for youth services). We also offer a sliding fee scale based on income. You can find more info about the insurance we accept and the payment plans we offer here.

That’s okay — a lot of young people we work with have had frustrating experiences elsewhere. We’ll start fresh with an assessment to understand what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what might help now.
