is a specialized program that focuses on providing school-based and outpatient services. Program is built on developing trust and relationships with our youth, families, communities, and schools. We provide real time intervention, where youth are seen on a daily basis, instead of by appointment, or after behavior or a crisis has happened.

Meet our October Employee of the Month: Zoe Kochel! 💙🌟

Zoe brings kindness into every room she walks into. Her sweet, caring spirit helps clients feel comfortable, valued, and truly heard. She has a natural way of making others feel welcome and supported, and the compassion she brings to her work makes a meaningful difference in the lives of the students she serves.

Having someone who listens, shows understanding, and creates a safe space can make all the difference, and Zoe embodies that kind of care through the work she does each day.

Zoe, thank you for the heart, kindness, and dedication you bring to our team and the students we serve. Your commitment to making others feel supported does not go unnoticed, and we're so grateful to have you as part of the RFS family!

Supporting Your Teen’s Mental Health

The teenage years come with a lot of changes, challenges, and emotions. Between school, friendships, family, and figuring out who they are, teens can experience stress and pressure that may be difficult to navigate.

As a parent or trusted adult, you don’t have to have all the answers to make a difference. Sometimes, simply showing up, listening without judgment, and reminding your teen that you’re there for them can mean more than you realize.
At RFS, we believe every teen deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported as they navigate life’s challenges.

A little understanding and support can go a long way.

Growth Begins Outside Your Comfort Zone

Sometimes, the things that help us grow the most are the things that feel a little uncomfortable at first.

Trying something new, meeting new people, speaking up, or taking a chance on yourself can feel intimidating. It’s natural to want to stick with what feels familiar and safe. But stepping outside your comfort zone gives you the opportunity to learn, build confidence, and discover what you’re capable of.

Growth doesn’t mean you have to make huge changes overnight. It can start with something as simple as trying a new activity, asking a question, sharing your feelings, or taking one small step toward a goal.

You might feel nervous. You might make mistakes. And things might not always go exactly as planned. But every experience can teach you something new about yourself and help you feel more confident the next time you face a challenge.
Remember, you don’t have to feel completely ready to take the first step. You just have to be willing to try.

Give yourself permission to explore new opportunities, embrace the unknown, and celebrate the progress you make along the way. You never know what you might discover when you give yourself the chance to grow.

At RFS Behavioral Health, being there for our clients is more than just what we do. It’s a privilege we never take for granted.

We know that reaching out for support can take courage, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to walk alongside the children and families we serve through life’s challenges, changes, and milestones. Whether it’s offering a listening ear, helping someone work through difficult emotions, celebrating progress, or simply showing up when someone needs support, we believe every moment matters.

Building trust, creating meaningful connections, and reminding our clients that they don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone is at the heart of what we do. Every individual has a unique story, and we’re honored to be a part of their journey.

Sherman Elementary Trunk or Treat!🎃

We had so much fun last night at Sherman Elementary’s Trunk or Treat! Our T.A.C.K.L.E. team loved participating in this special event and getting to spend time with students, families, and staff outside of the classroom.

It was wonderful seeing the school community come together to celebrate Halloween, enjoy the festivities, and make special fall memories. Events like these give our T.A.C.K.L.E. clinicians another opportunity to connect with students, strengthen relationships, and show their support beyond the school day.

At RFS, we love being involved in the communities we serve and participating in activities that bring everyone together. Building connections with students and families is an important part of what we do, and we’re grateful to be included in these meaningful moments!👻

Today, Chelsea Mansfield, Program Manager at RFS Behavioral Health, spent the day presenting on mental health at Defiance Middle School!

Creating opportunities for students to learn about mental health is an important part of helping them understand their emotions, recognize challenges, and learn the importance of reaching out for support when they need it.

We’re grateful for opportunities like this to bring mental health conversations into our schools and help create environments where students feel comfortable learning, asking questions, and talking about their well-being.

We asked Josie Schoonover, Program Manager for Marion and Crawford, what she enjoys most about her role at RFS Behavioral Health!

One of the things Josie values most is the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the families she serves. Being able to provide support, build connections, and help families navigate challenges is what makes her work so rewarding.

She also loves that no two days are ever the same! Each day brings new opportunities to connect with others, problem-solve, collaborate with her team, and make a difference in the lives of the children and families in her communities.

At RFS, we know that every family has unique needs, and having a dedicated team working to provide support can make a lasting difference. We’re grateful to have team members like Josie who are passionate about the work they do and the people they serve.

What Are You Working Toward This Week?

A new week brings new opportunities to learn, grow, and take steps toward the things that matter most to you.

As you head into this week, take a moment to think about one thing you want to work toward. It doesn’t have to be a big goal or something you accomplish overnight. Sometimes, the most meaningful progress starts with small, intentional steps.

Maybe you want to practice being more patient with yourself, make time for something you enjoy, try a new coping skill, stay organized, build confidence, or ask for help when you need it. Your goal might be personal, school-related, or simply something that helps you feel more balanced and supported.

Whatever you’re working toward, remember that progress looks different for everyone. Some weeks, you may feel like you’re making big strides. Other weeks, showing up and trying your best may be an accomplishment all on its own. Give yourself grace, celebrate the little wins, and remember that you don’t have to have everything figured out to keep moving forward.

As you start this week, ask yourself: What is one small step I can take toward something that matters to me?

What are you working toward this week? Share your goal in the comments, and let’s encourage one another along the way!
