Court-Ordered Therapy Accepted Through Medi-Cal in California

When therapy is suggested or ordered by the court or Child Protective Services (CPS), finding a provider who understands both the legal context and Medi-Cal requirements is essential. At Center for Mental Resilience, we provide court-ordered and court-recommended therapy in California for individuals and families using Medi-Cal benefits.

We accept referrals for individual therapy, family therapy, and related mental health services when therapy is recommended by CPS, social workers, probation, or the court. Our role is to provide therapeutic treatment—not evaluations—while supporting clients in meeting court-related expectations within the scope of Medi-Cal.

Schedule

Section Title

Individual Therapy (Medi-Cal)

We provide individual therapy when the court or CPS recommends mental health treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, anger management, or emotional regulation. Therapy focuses on symptom reduction, coping skills, and emotional stability within Medi-Cal guidelines.

Family & Parenting-Related Therapy

Family or parenting-focused therapy may be recommended to support communication, emotional safety, and relational stability. Services are provided as therapeutic treatment and coordinated, when appropriate, with caseworkers or referring agencies.

CPS & Court Coordination

With appropriate releases, we are able to coordinate with CPS, social workers, probation officers, or attorneys to confirm participation in therapy, attendance, and general progress—while maintaining client confidentiality and Medi-Cal compliance.

What We Do Not Provide

Center for Mental Resilience does not provide court evaluations, custody evaluations, psychological testing, reunification evaluations, or expert testimony. Our role is limited to providing therapeutic mental health services as recommended or ordered by the court.

What Court-Ordered Therapy Includes

Court-ordered or court-recommended therapy typically focuses on addressing mental health concerns, emotional regulation, parenting stress, trauma, or relational challenges identified by CPS or the court. Services are provided as outpatient mental health treatment and billed through Medi-Cal when appropriate.

Meet Court & CPS Requirements

Therapy participation can help individuals demonstrate compliance with court or CPS recommendations while receiving meaningful mental health support.
