About this service
The Montana Rural Telemental Health Program (MT RTMHP) connects children in rural & underserved areas with trauma-trained therapists via secure videoconferencing platforms.
Our network therapists come from private practice and Children’s Advocacy Centers. Additionally, we have multiple therapists participating from two state-wide mental health organizations: Yellowstone Boys & Girls Ranch and Youth Dynamics, Inc.
How to get help
If you know a child who has experienced abuse, faces barriers to accessing in-person therapy, and may benefit from trauma-informed therapy via telemental health, talk to the child's CPS worker, Victim Advocate, Victim Witness Specialist, or local Children's Advocacy Center about being referred to the MT RTMHP.
