Counseling & Mental Health Services

JFS offers counseling to individuals and families (including children), support groups, workshops, psychiatric assessment and medication management, psychological testing, mentoring programs and a free drop-in center for adults living with persistent mental illness and/or developmental disabilities.
COUNSELINGBoth children and adults have access to individual, group and family therapy, where they will receive help overcoming personal challenges.
PSYCHIATRYPsychiatric evaluations and medication management are available for children, adolescents and adults. Clients have access to cost effective, quality psychiatric services with minimal wait time for appointments. In 2020, JFS expanded its psychiatry services to include child and adolescent psychiatry through our partnership with Florida Atlantic University’s (FAU) Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine. The partnership through the college’s Residency Program innovates our existing level of quality care.
PSYCHOLOGYPsychological testing is comprised of a series of evaluations designed to gather information on an individual’s cognitive, academic, behavioral and emotional strengths and weaknesses. Evaluations can assess for: Gifted/IQ, ADHD, extended time for testing and other learning disabilities.
WELCOME HOME PROGRAMThe Welcome Home Program is a day drop-in center in Delray Beach for adults with persistent psychiatric illness. The Program is facilitated by a licensed clinical social worker. Programming includes coping, nutrition, social and other life skills, and activities including crafts, games, parties, and field trips (when possible).
