CDC Behavioral Health Services – Family Healing Center, located at 2100 Pleasant Avenue in Hamilton, Ohio, is a specialized facility focused on restoring the bond between children and their families after instances of abuse, neglect, or substance use have led to child removal by Children’s Services. The center provides structured therapeutic visitation, individual counseling, and family therapy to promote healing, safety, and emotional stability. Children may be placed in relative custody, but the ultimate goal of the Family Healing Center is to support biological parents in developing the skills necessary for reunification.
By working closely with families and Butler County Children’s Services, the Family Healing Center helps parents create safe, nurturing home environments while addressing underlying issues such as trauma, substance use, or parenting deficits. Through a trauma-informed approach and a team of compassionate professionals, the program empowers families to rebuild trust, enhance parenting capabilities, and achieve long-term family stability. The center plays a critical role in helping families move from crisis to connection with dignity and support.
Foundations has been by far the best practice I’ve been to in a long time. The front desk staff is always so pleasant, helpful, and efficient. The therapists and counselors I’ve both met and seen are the same. The process is super simple and they’re very good about working with you to make it even simpler. Highly recommend this practice for adults and youth needing some help.
Walking into DeCoach Recovery Centre - Hamilton almost 3 months ago was the hardest and best decision I’ve made. I was tired, hopeless, and didn’t think sobriety was possible for me. The staff here changed that. What I enjoy most is that they treat you like a human, not a case number. The counselors actually listen. They helped me build real coping skills I use every single day — not just “don’t use,” but how to handle stress, triggers, and the boredom that used to wreck me. The group sessions are real. No fake positivity. People share honestly, and I’ve found a community I didn’t expect. The facility itself is clean, calm, and respectful. That first waiting room with the sun logo? It felt safe when nothing else did. Almost 90 days later, I’m sleeping through the night, I’m present for my family, and I’m starting to like the guy in the mirror again. If you’re on the fence, go. DeCoach gave me my life back, one day at a time.
I have been a patient of Branden's off and on for a couple of years now. He is a wonderful therapist!! He isn't the enabling type, he listens and really challenges my thoughts, which is what I need. He gives really helpful homework. I send everyone to him for therapy...even the patients at the outpatient psych office I am a nurse at! Highly recommend. I also see Jason NP for medication and he is awesome. He actually listens to me, explains everything, and includes me in the plan making, which I appreciate. Also, highly recommend. I won't ever go anywhere else for my mental health needs!!
