Outpatient Therapy & Behavioral Support for Children, Teens, and Adults with Intellectual Disabilities
Supporting Development, Encouraging Independence, Strengthening Families
Raising or caring for someone with an intellectual disability can be incredibly rewarding — and incredibly demanding. You may be navigating challenges in school, home routines, emotional regulation, or social development. You may feel stuck between wanting to help and not knowing how.
At Neubauer Mental Health Services (NMHS), we provide specialized outpatient support for individuals with intellectual disabilities and their families. Our licensed clinicians offer therapy that is developmentally appropriate, behaviorally informed, and deeply person-centered — always focusing on what’s possible, not just what’s difficult.
What Are Intellectual Disabilities?
Intellectual disabilities (ID) are diagnosed when an individual has limitations in intellectual functioning (reasoning, learning, problem-solving) and in adaptive behavior (conceptual, social, and practical skills). These challenges typically begin before age 18 and can range from mild to profound.
Common co-occurring concerns include:
- Delayed communication or language development
- Difficulty with emotional regulation
- Limited social or daily living skills
- Behavioral outbursts or self-harm
- Learning difficulties and school-related challenges
- Anxiety or frustration related to transitions or changes in routine
Our Approach to Treatment
Therapy for intellectual disabilities at NMHS is not about “fixing” — it’s about supporting strengths, building practical skills, and reducing emotional and behavioral overwhelm.
Services may include:
Individual therapy using visual aids, repetition, and routines
Emotional regulation strategies and calming techniques
Behavioral modification and reinforcement planning
Social skills development
Family and caregiver coaching for consistency and structure at home
School collaboration (with parental consent)
Crisis planning and safety support, if needed
Each care plan is fully customized to fit the individual’s abilities, environment, and support system.
Support for Families and Caregivers
We understand the emotional and physical demands of supporting someone with ID. That’s why we offer:
- Practical, actionable parenting strategies
- Emotional support and guidance for caregivers
- Help navigating school systems and service providers
- Therapy that includes the family, not just the client
When families feel supported, clients make even greater progress.
