Whether your child is struggling to transition into adulthood, battling executive dysfunction, or even addiction, at Bridge The Gap we offer personalized care packages to support them—and you, the parent—through every peak and valley.

As sisters that have overcome mental health challenges within our own family, we know what it takes to facilitate family-wide healing. Our in-home, boots-on-the-ground approach offers a level of care beyond what in-office therapy alone can provide. It’s support that follows your child throughout their day, helping them through the small and big moments alike.

With our combined clinical expertise, and passion for helping families like our own, we are dedicated to helping your family open a new chapter where everyone gets to thrive.


What Sets Us Apart

In-Home, Concierge Family Support

We start by connecting with all existing treatment providers, family members, and your child to gain a 360-degree view of their care and of your family.

Personalized Assessment

Next, we carefully select a mentor based on your child’s history, personality, and unique needs. Our 95% success rate in first-time matches speaks to our expertise.

Perfect Mentor Match

We address all aspects of your child's growth—from executive functioning and academic support, to substance abuse recovery and social skills.

Comprehensive Support

Our goal is to ensure everyone in your home feels supported and more comfortable with setting, and communicating, healthy boundaries & expectations.

Family Integration

Through high-touch case management, we work closely with all treatment providers, serving as the vital link that ensures everyone is on the same page.

Collaborative Approach


Your Partners in Transformation

Explore Our Services

Your family’s unique challenges deserve an equally unique treatment plan. Our therapeutic mentorships offer in-home, concierge support tailored to your needs—starting with a carefully matched mentor.

From there, high-touch support via weekly meetings, calls, and check-in texts offer immersive, real-life support as your child confronts everyday challenges.

Therapeutic Mentorship

Do most conversations with your teen or young adult turn into an argument? As tensions rise in the household, you may be feeling more disconnected from your child than ever before.

Get equipped with the tools you need to reconnect and communicate effectively. We’ll also cover how to set healthy boundaries & communicate expectations.

Family Coaching

Our case management services provide high-touch support, synchronizing your child’s care across all treatment providers.

Collaborating and communicating with all parties regularly can help accelerate your child’s progress by ensuring everyone is working toward the same goals. And, it’s one less thing you have to be stressed about!

  • "A Gamechanger for Our Family"

    “Bridge The Gap has been a game changer for our family. Their hands-on approach and collaborative care was the missing piece in our son’s ability to launch into adulthood. We are forever grateful to them!”

  • "Helped Me Find My Way Through"

    ”Bridge the Gap has been a game changer for my life. I was really struggling with having the motivation to be in the life I wanted for myself and getting the mentoring support helped me find my way through a very difficult time and taught me that taking small steps using simple coping tools was a way forward that would put me into my success.”

  • "Smart, Kind & Compassionate"

    “Bridge The Gap has been the biggest support and such a help to my family and I for around 17 months now. I would not be in the place I am today without them and I could not be more grateful. They have done so much for me and are smart, kind and compassionate.”

  • "Our Daughter's Been Sober for 2 Years!"

    “Bridge The Gap was instrumental in our daughter’s recovery. We tried so many treatment centers but our daughter was unsuccessful in maintaining her sobriety. The mentor who she worked with at Bridge The Gap made such a significant impact on her. She has now been sober for two years!”

  • "In Tune with Their Clients"

    “Bridge The Gap is so amazing when it comes to being in tune with their clients. They have been helping my family for almost 2 years. We are grateful for their services.”
