What is School-Based Outpatient Therapy?

School locations are licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare as mental health clinics. Therapists employed by T. W. Ponessa & Associates Counseling Services, Inc. hold master’s degrees in behavioral-health related fields (psychology, social work, counseling). Clinicians use strengths-based interventions to empower children and adolescents to face the challenges that they experience in their daily living.
