Families

Family life can be difficult whether someone in your family has a mental health issue or not. The natural ups and downs of life affect everyone in the family, and if a major development or a health diagnosis happens, it can affect the dynamic. We understand that the strength and health of the family unit is fundamental to everyone in it, which is why we offer therapy for the entire family and include it as part of some of our other programs.

Our outpatient family therapy can help with everything, from managing emotions to managing severe and persistent mental illnesses. Located at our Richfield site five days a week, our outpatient therapy team is trauma-informed to best empower everyone to live an emotionally healthy life.­

What is outpatient therapy? Is it for me?

Outpatient therapy is the “traditional” arrangement where you go to your therapist on a regular basis. It’s for a wide range of people with a wide range of needs: Our outpatient team currently sees clients from as young as two to as old as 95. It’s helpful for anything from feeling “stuck” in life, to handling something bad that happened suddenly to severe and ongoing mental illness.

Our clinical team provides individual, and couples therapy as well.

If you’re still not sure if outpatient therapy is right for you, you can contact us at (763) 746-2411 or info@youable.health with any questions you have.

What kinds of therapy do you do in outpatient therapy?

Our therapists are trained in a variety of kinds, or “modalities,” of therapy, including talk therapy, play therapy, strengths-based therapy, mindfulness, and many more. All our therapists are trauma-informed as well. Your therapist will determine the best modality to suit you and your needs.

Where are your outpatient locations?

We offer outpatient therapy at our Richfield location.

How do I get started?

You can contact us at (763) 746-2411 to talk with our client experience team, ask any questions you may have, and get set up with your first appointment.

I’ve never been to therapy before -- what is it going to be like?

It’s normal to find therapy a bit intimidating, especially if you’ve never gone before. It’s a deeply personal thing, often begun because something has happened to push you across the line from “I can deal with this on my own” to “I need help to handle this,” and that event is frequently adverse or traumatic in itself.

To help ease the process of getting started, we’ve streamlined our intake process and taken away the typical introductory packet of personal questions. Instead, at your first appointment -- called a DA, or diagnostic assessment -- a therapist will have a conversation with you to talk about why you want to begin therapy. After that, they’ll make a recommendation for which of our therapists will be best suited for you and your needs, and our new client experience team will schedule your regular appointments with them.

If you want to know more about what to expect with therapy, don’t be afraid to ask our new client experience team or your therapist questions, either -- they’re here to help you!
