Behavioral Health
Licensed care, with technology that serves the clinician.
Public behavioral health programs are being asked to do more with fewer clinicians. Caseloads keep growing, documentation grows with them, and good clinicians burn out and leave. Tabula Rasa Federal works on both sides of that problem: the care itself, and the systems around it.
Our services come from licensed clinicians who have carried full caseloads themselves. We provide individual, family, and group therapy for children, adolescents, and adults, deliver trauma-informed care in clinics, schools, detention facilities, and community settings, and place credentialed staff when a program needs more capacity.
Digital tools now carry care into the days between sessions. A check-in can show that a teenager has stopped sleeping, so the therapist walks into Tuesday’s session knowing where to start. None of it replaces what actually helps people heal: another person paying attention.
That balance shapes every tool we build and every clinician we place. Our technology measures what’s working and shows funders the results their programs depend on, but it never makes clinical decisions, and it never puts a screen where a person should be. The clinician stays in charge, and the human connection stays at the center.
More time with people. Less time with paperwork.
The pressure on public behavioral health is real.
The workforce shortage won't fix itself
Agencies cannot hire enough clinicians to close the gap. New capacity has to come from freeing up time for the clinicians they already have.
Paperwork drives burnout
Documentation is one of the main reasons clinicians leave public programs. Reducing it helps programs keep their staff.
Funding depends on outcomes
Grants and contracts increasingly require measured results. Programs that can show outcomes are in a stronger position to keep their funding.

Every child deserves room to play, heal, and grow.
Complex clinical care.
Direct services from licensed clinicians who have carried full caseloads themselves.
Individual, family & group therapy
Evidence-based treatment for children, adolescents, and adults, with progress measured throughout.
Trauma-informed care & crisis intervention
Care built on safety and trust, delivered in clinics, schools, detention facilities, and community settings.
Care coordination & quality oversight
Case consultation, treatment planning, and clinical supervision that keep a program meeting its own standards.
Licensed clinical staffing & surge support
Credentialed therapists and social workers, vetted and placed quickly when a program needs more capacity.
Early psychosis intervention.
Psychosis most often first appears in late adolescence or early adulthood. How quickly someone gets treatment after their first symptoms has a major effect on their recovery, so shortening that time is the goal.
The Early Psychosis Intervention Network (EPINET) is the national model for this work. It uses coordinated specialty care teams, standardized measures, and shared data so programs can learn from each other. Our clinicians have served in an EPINET program at a nationally recognized treatment and research collaborative, so we understand the model well, including where it is hardest to carry out.
Coordinated specialty care support
Team-based care for first-episode psychosis, including individual therapy, medication coordination, case management, and supported education and employment.
First-episode assessment & engagement
Early identification and a respectful first contact. In the early months, keeping the person engaged is a core part of treatment, and we staff and train for it.
Family psychoeducation & support
We help families understand the illness, build skills for difficult days, and hold realistic hope.
Measurement & learning health systems
Standardized assessments and outcome data that are put to use, improving each client's care and helping the whole program learn. This work is where our Behavioral Health AI started.
Technology that carries the load.
Documentation, measurement, and analytics built for behavioral health programs. Clinicians stay in charge, client privacy is protected, and nothing is automated that shouldn't be.
AI-assisted clinical documentation
AI drafts session notes and treatment documentation, and the clinician reviews and signs them. Hours of paperwork become minutes of review.
Measurement-based care & outcome tracking
Validated symptom measures collected between sessions, so treatment plans follow the data and funders can see results.
Digital behavioral health analytics
Program-level views of engagement, outcomes, and risk, so supervisors can spot issues before the quarterly report.
Clinical sentiment analysis
Under strict privacy controls, we analyze language patterns to help clinicians notice changes in a client sooner.
Community Violence Prevention & Trauma Recovery
We delivered trauma-informed violence prevention for youth and families in Ward 8, where exposure to community violence is ongoing rather than a single event.
Our clinicians combined structured risk assessment with evidence-based treatment. We used Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) for youth coping with loss and exposure, Structured Psychotherapy for Adolescents Responding to Chronic Stress (SPARCS) in groups, and Motivational Interviewing to engage young people at highest risk of retaliation or re-injury.
We tracked progress with validated tools, including the Child and Adolescent Trauma Screen (CATS), the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), and ACEs screening. Safety planning, family work, and coordination with schools, faith partners, and community violence intervention teams kept care going beyond the therapy room.
