Multisystemic Therapist (MST) For Sandoval County, NM

MST is an intensive family and community-based treatment that addresses the multiple influences that contribute to serious antisocial or illegal behaviors in youth aged 11-17.5 years. Treatment entails 3-5 months of work with the family of the youth in their home. MST-PSB is multisystemic therapy for youth with problem sexual behaviors, and it is an adaptation from classic

MST. MST-PSB

targets families with youth ages 10-17.5. MST uses the strengths of each system (e.g., family, peers, school, neighborhood, indigenous support network) to promote behavior change in the youth's natural environment. The ultimate goal of MST is to empower parents, and ensure they have or develop the skills and resources needed, to address the difficulties that arise in raising children and adolescents and to similarly empower youth to cope with systemic stressors.
