Minimal use of Pharmacological Intervention-Based Therapies

SFCC opts to use alternatives to the pharmacological treatment approaches as a first treatment option.   After the completion of a treatment cycle (every 2-3 months), SFCC, in collaboration with treatment providers, conducts re-evaluation sessions with the client and their family to assess the success and level of control of their life without pharmacological intervention.
