The Children’s Center Utah is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping infants, toddlers, and preschoolers ages 0 to 6, and their families through comprehensive, trauma-informed mental health care. With over 60 years of experience, they are Utah’s only agency focused exclusively on the emotional well-being of very young children and their caregivers. The Children’s Center recognizes that a child’s mental health challenges affect the entire family, and their approach is rooted in supporting healing for every family member. They offer various therapies, including individual, family, and group sessions. Their services include mental health assessments, in-depth evaluations, and medication management. They are committed to evidence-based practices, ensuring proven treatments benefit each child. A standout program is their therapeutic preschool, providing intensive daily treatment for young children struggling in traditional settings. This program helps children learn emotional management and social skills, with transportation assistance provided for those enrolled. They also offer free infant/early childhood mental health teleconsultations for providers across Utah, sharing their expertise statewide.
