Denver, CO – Decade2Connect (303-674-6681), a 501(c)3 nonprofit mental health organization, announces its updated family-oriented outpatient programs for children aged 10 to 14.
—
The newly announced adolescent mental health service focuses on the family and its role in child development. The group believes that parents and caregivers shape how a pre-teen responds to various stressful situations and helps adults create a safe space where children can openly express their feelings.

With the updated service, adolescents work through their mental health concerns with their parents or guardians. Decade2Connect uses multiple modalities in clinical therapy, such as step-down services, traditional therapy, and parent coaching, to help its patients and their families heal together as a single unit.
The goal is to create a holistic treatment plan for various child mental health concerns. This is especially important for depression and anxiety – two illnesses that often fly under the radar in many American families. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently stated that anxiety and depression among children aged 6 to 17 have increased since 2003, with an average 8% increase in reported cases each year. Experts warn that unless otherwise immediately addressed, the number of depression cases among adolescents will continue to rise.
Aware of this, Decade2Connect has strengthened its clinical model to make parents and guardians more involved with their charges. Its unique outpatient program provides a comfortable, supportive, and non-judgmental environment for children to engage in experiential therapeutic activities. Here, parents and their children learn how to resolve conflicts together, improve communication and cooperation, work through trauma, and regulate emotions and behaviors.
The group takes pride in more than its six decades of combined experience in offering child therapy services in the Denver Metro area. Decade2Connect works with all mental health concerns, from depression to ADHD to body dysmorphia.
A spokesperson for the group said, “In our decades of experience, we understand the important role caregivers and family members play throughout the treatment process. When children, parents, siblings, and family members have access to support, everyone can benefit and family connections improve. In short, participation by everyone improves outcomes for everyone.”
