What We Do
Carebear Playhouse provides intensive behavioral health services for youth ages 12-18 who are navigating trauma, mental health challenges, and systemic barriers. We combine evidence-based clinical treatment with hip-hop culture, peer support, and radical love.
Our program runs Monday-Friday, 9am-3pm, offering:
Individual and group therapy (trauma-focused CBT, DBT, EMDR)
Peer support from people with lived experience
Family therapy and caregiver coaching
Music production, expressive arts, and cultural programming
Case management and system navigation support
We serve youth involved in foster care, juvenile justice, special education, and families seeking alternatives to traditional mental health care.




Is Carebear Playhouse Right for My Child?
Your child might benefit from our program if they are:
Struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, or behavioral challenges
Involved with DSS, foster care, or juvenile justice
Not connecting with traditional therapy
Dealing with trauma from violence, abuse, loss, or systemic oppression
Needing more support than weekly therapy but don't require hospitalization
We accept NC Medicaid and work with families to remove barriers like transportation and school coordination.
Parent Workshops and Events
Foster family bonding with engaging parent workshops and community events. Connect with other families.


After-School Programs Available
Structured activities, homework help, and engaging experiences for children in after-school programs. Contact us for more information.
