About

As a nonprofit organization, public charity Green Mountain Mobile Therapy Inc provides therapy and social/emotional services to Vermont’s youth and families in locations that do not have appropriate therapeutic spaces and accessible services. Green Mountain Mobile Therapy engages with schools and community organizations to provide direct mental health services and social/emotional resources.

On December 7, 2021 the US Surgeon General issued an advisory on the crisis of youth mental health.

The American Pediatrics Association, American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Children’s Hospital Association declared a National Emergency for Children and Adolescent Mental Health.

Green Mountain Mobile Therapy-Mobile Mental Health was developed in 2021 as a way too increase access to mental health services for youth. Therapy space needs to feel safe, it needs to engage the five senses, it needs to be consistent and establish structure and boundaries. .

Reducing barriers and building supportive models so youth can access mental health services start in communities such as schools and youth organizations. Green Mountain Mobile Therapy-Mobile Mental Health does just that-it meets children where they are at physically, socially and emotionally. It reduces the burden of space allocation on schools, allows for different types of therapeutic services and is a safe, engaging and consistent space.
