Diagnostic Assessments
Before receiving treatment at AOBB you will first need to complete and submit an intake package. The intake package can be found in the “client’s intake” section of this website. After submitting your intake package, we will then schedule your initial intake session with one of our therapists for a diagnostic assessment.
This assessment is designed to give the therapist understanding of your mental health status; the therapist will assess your thinking, reasoning, memory, and behavior. A diagnostic assessment typically takes between 60-90 minutes. The therapist will ask questions to understand your unique situation; this process will also help formulate a plan to improve your quality of life and manage symptoms to reach your goals.
If you and your therapist decide that individual or family counseling through AOBB is the best option, we will schedule a follow-up appointment. Typically, you will meet with your therapist for 60-minute sessions at a specified day and time, depending on your needs.
AOBB’s treatment plans can include one-on-one individual therapy sessions or one of our referral-based behavioral health treatment programs (i.e., Alternative Family Live, Individual Supports, B2 Respite, etc.).

Service Definitions
Adult Therapy
Outpatient psychotherapy is available for a variety of emotional, interpersonal, and behavioral difficulties such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, assertiveness training, anger management, and bereavement (grief). Individuals also frequently seek therapy for adjustment issues related to life changes, such as those that may arise after divorce, relocation, job loss, personal trauma, or other traumatic experiences.
Child and Adolescent Therapy / Family Therapy
Services are available for children and adolescents to help with behavioral, emotional, learning, and relationship issues. Therapists work with children and teens on a variety of difficulties including attention and hyperactivity disorders, anxiety, depression, social skills problems, disobedience, aggression, adjustment to divorce and/or blended families, and issues in school settings.
Individual therapy with children and teens offers the opportunity to discuss issues one-on-one with a therapist, phycologist, or psychiatrist in the context of therapeutic sessions or play activities. Discussions and activities are based on the age and developmental level of each consumer.
Group Counseling
Group therapy has been shown to be as effective as individual therapy when treating a wide variety of emotional, cognitive, and behavioral issues. Additionally, the ability to grow together through shared experiences can be a powerful way to improve mental health and promote a lasting change beyond the group setting.
Therapy groups offer several advantages over individual therapy. For example, groups provide a unique opportunity to use relationships to solve problems in an environment that more closely resembles real-world social experiences. Other advantages include offering members the opportunity to exchange social feedback, improve communication skills, reduce social isolation, and develop new behaviors in a safe supportive environment. We know sharing personal information can be difficult, so group members decide what is discussed and are encouraged only to share information when comfortable.
