Therapeutic In-Home Services
The
Wisconsin In-Home Therapy Program is an intensive therapeutic service
designed to create lasting change in both the identified client and their
families. As the name implies, sessions occur in the homes of families, not
in an office setting. This facet alone gives the PATH therapist a more
realistic idea of what life is like for the entire family. In most cases
the family is engaged in conversations, experiential practices, and the
creation of family specific solutions. PATH In-Home staff prides themselves
on being strength-based, nurturing, and practical in their approaches. The
goal is often family reunification or keeping a fragile family intact.
PATH therapists are master’s level practioneers with 3,000 hours of
supervision usually with years of prior experience in the mental health
fields. Referrals come from a number of counties in Wisconsin. The In-Home
team is collaborative, innovative, culturally/gender aware, and always seeks
to empower families as quickly as possible. The PATH Parent Support staff
often work in tandem with the therapists. Treatment plans, consultations,
assessments, teaming, and family group conferencing are a few of the
everyday tasks In-Home therapists provide. Statistical data and the
comments of Health and Human Service Directors support the effectiveness of
the PATH In-Home Program.
