Manatee - family mental health 1.0.186

Mental Health for Today's Family

The Manatee app offers valuable resources to help families strengthen their relationships and thrive. It empowers parents and children with tools and knowledge to better understand each other, build healthy habits, manage emotions, and deepen connection.

Every family can benefit from using Manatee, particularly if:

• The family harmony feels off
• Day-to-day activities are challenging
• There are concerns about a child's behavior
• Family life feels like merely surviving, not thriving
• The need for support is recognized, but unsure where to start
• Aiming to be the best parent possible

If you are seeking additional services, such as family or child therapy or parent coaching, look no further. Manatee provides access to licensed therapists who can be matched with your family immediately. There is no waitlist for additional support, and the app can also enhance your family's treatment.

Features of Manatee include:

• Goals: Encouraging a family to adopt healthy habits such as fostering self-esteem and managing emotions.
• Rewards: Fun family rewards to celebrate progress.
• Chatbot: Interacts with children and offers mindfulness exercises.
• Journal: A secure space for children to express their thoughts.
• Courses: Expert-developed lessons for parents.
• Family Connection: Opportunities for families to come together and learn more about one another.

Families receiving clinical care through Manatee can also access the following features:

• Instant messaging with care coordinators, therapists, or coaches.
• A tailored treatment plan with specific goals for the family.
• Regular check-ins and assessments to track progress.

How does Manatee work?

Manatee can be used independently by downloading the app and adding your child(ren) as well as co-parents or caregivers to your account. Setting goals, rewards, and exploring self-guided courses will help you get started.

However, for families desiring more support, Manatee is best utilized in conjunction with their Family Care model, which includes the following steps:

1. Book a Consultation: Schedule a free 20-minute call with a family expert to gain insight into your family's needs. If it's a suitable fit, an intake session will be arranged.
2. Assessment and Intake: Complete an assessment and review the results with a therapist to identify your family's unique requirements. Together, you will create a 6-week care plan.
3. Implementing the Care Plan: Begin with the 6-week care plan, consisting of weekly therapy or coaching sessions and utilization of the family app to apply the acquired knowledge.
