Valley Behavioral Health offers a number of day treatment programs and services for children and youth ages 6 to 17 years old. Day treatment is therapeutic programming that is offered Monday through Friday during school hours. Our programs provide a safe and healing environment for your child to work through mental and behavioral health symptoms that cause problems in the home, at school, or in the community. Day treatment is more intensive than outpatient treatment but less intensive than hospitalization.
While in day treatment, your child will receive individual, family, and group therapy as well as skills groups throughout the day. During the school year, Valley partners with Granite School District to provide academic support to our clients to prevent them from falling behind in school, or to help them catch up. In the summer, we offer additional therapeutic activities and field trips.
Our new Children, Youth, and Family campus opened in the Fall of 2022. We are excited to continue the excellent services of these programs under a new name and in a new beautiful space. The new facility has play therapy, sand tray therapy, music therapy, and art therapy rooms.
Transportation is available to and from all of our day treatment programs, and lunch is provided. If you would like more information about our day treatment programs, please reach out.

CYF Outpatient is a youth and family clinic which provides comprehensive services. Outpatient treatment is available for youth and their family members living in the household with a variety of mental health diagnoses. Services offered include assessments, family, individual and group therapy, crisis intervention, case management, and medication management. We provide in-home behavioral support.
Change for clients varies from individual to individual. Change is determined by the client’s and family’s motivation to work on identified treatment issues.
Determining how long a client will be in therapy will be considered individually based upon the needs of the client. After the client is assessed by the therapist, the therapist will schedule an ongoing appointment time with the client. Therapists review the duration and length of time for therapy based upon progress in treatment.
There are a number of reasons why a client may be discharged from services. These reasons include:
For best practice, Valley Behavioral Health believes that children need a safe and confidential environment to work on treatment issues. There may be times when the parent will come into session. The therapist will generally share information with the parent addressing the treatment goals worked on and suggesting interventions for the parent to use at home with the child. It is important that children feel safe to express concerns and issues they are having within the therapeutic relationship, which is why confidentiality will be honored.
The role of the parent while their child is in therapy is to collaborate with the therapist on interventions, progress, and concerns. Therapy is a support to assist parents to help their child learn new coping skills, ways to problem solve and healthy pro-social behaviors. A large part of the role of the parent during treatment is to help encourage, support, engage, and practice newly learned behaviors with your child in between sessions.
