Success Stories

Crisis & Resilience

"We came to the Center for Effective Child Therapy (CECT) because my child was in crisis. My
child was no longer in danger of self-harm, but he was extremely angry and fearful, increasingly acting out -- and lost. It seemed entirely possible he might never again get in touch with the happy, gentle, engaged child he had been. There is nothing as terrifying as seeing your child in dire need and not being able to help. 

We were extremely fortunate that a trusted advisor recommended Judge Baker's CECT. From the moment of the intake phone call it was clear that it was the right place to be. Our first visit and every subsequent visit confirmed and deepened that first impression of dedication and excellence." 

President's Corner

Robert P. Franks, Ph.D.
President and CEO

As we welcome the arrival of spring, we look forward to new beginnings and the promise of change.  Spring brings the end of the school year, anticipation of summer vacations, enjoying the outdoors and reconnecting with our families.  However, for many families, the realities of mental health struggles are ever present.  Raising a child with special needs or behavioral health challenges can make each day feel difficult and stressful, and at times make optimism and hope feel out of reach.  

Parents and caregivers need to know that they do not have to struggle alone. Judge Baker Children's Center is dedicated to ensuring that every child and family has access to the highest quality mental health care and proven services that work.    READ MORE...
