🔸️There are numerous reasons why people go to therapy, it does not have to be because of a crisis.. The ultimate goal of therapy is to improve your quality of life and to enhance your overall well-being.

Happiness is something that you’re entitled to, not something that you need to earn. Happiness is inside you.

Virtual and phone meetings are available with our Bilingual (Spanish & Portuguese) clinicians.⁠
⁠
🔸️Telehealth is designed for privacy, confidentiality, and efficiency for online therapy to explore healthy self-expression and coping mechanism. ⁠
⁠
🔸️There are many misconceptions about mental health, yet we all have mental health and we deserve to take care of it. ⁠
⁠
🔸️If you or someone you know is in need of therapy just remember, in order for therapy to actually make a difference, the person who attends has to be able to find their own reason for being there. ⁠When telling someone you think can benefit from therapy, remember that you are talking to them for their sake, not your own.⁠

Our Story - 60 Years in Newark

The Youth Development Clinic was founded in 1958 as a private, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization by a consortium of Newark residents, the Prudential Insurance Company of America, and the Newark Board of Education.

We provide services to children in schools and community-based settings, as well as in our outpatient clinic in downtown Newark, New Jersey. We counsel those with significant behavioral and emotional needs, working to stabilize their behaviors and foster learning. We also provide consultation to school staff to support and manage students and effectively maximize their educational attainment with minimal disruptions to the classroom.

YDC established the Neighborhood Based Partnership Program 28 years ago in order to provide needed services to children and families within their actual neighborhoods, where they live and attend school. Through partnerships with Newark public, non-public, and charter schools, we are able to achieve success in reaching the most vulnerable children and families. By building interpersonal and behavioral skills in children, and coupling this with consultation with teachers to help them maintain behavioral changes in the classroom environment, we are able to improve children’s coping skills and increase their academic success.
