HISTORY & BACKGROUND OF ITSCO
Founded on the shared vision of a supervisor and her supervisee, ITSCO was born out of a recognized need for accessible mental health care for youth. Observing the substantial barriers families faced in obtaining outside-school mental health services, our founders were inspired to create a solution that brought care directly to where the children are: in their schools.
Our inception was guided by two fundamental principles: the well-being of the clinician and the needs of the client. This dual focus ensured that we not only provided our services in the most accessible manner but also fostered an environment where therapists could thrive professionally.
Established with the conviction that mental health care is a critical component of a child’s overall well-being and educational success, ITSCO has been steadfast in its commitment to breaking down barriers to service. By prioritizing the clinician-client relationship, we have created a culture that values personal attention, therapeutic integrity, and the tailor-made treatment of every individual we serve.
As we continue to grow and evolve, our history remains a testament to our enduring dedication to the mental health of our community’s youth, and our unwavering commitment to the professionals who make our mission possible.
