Tanager Place

About this facility

Tanager Place in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, provides inpatient and outpatient care for children and teens facing trauma, suicidality, depression, and other behavioral challenges. They offer multiple levels of support to help youth stay safe, build skills, and improve their mental health so they can thrive at home and in the community. Their trauma-informed, strengths-based approach includes therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), expressive arts, music, and play therapy. These methods help youth manage emotions, develop coping skills, and build healthy relationships in a safe, supportive setting. Tanager also offers specialized programs for LGBTQ youth and community-based services that provide in-home support. These programs meet families where they are, helping them navigate challenges and build lasting skills to promote healing and wellness outside the traditional clinical setting.
