Compassionate, Transformative Care for Children and Families

The Integrated Behavioral Health Program (IBH) at Cincinnati Children's provides transformative care for children and families. Our innovative program offers a holistic approach to pediatric care, seamlessly integrating behavioral health services into primary care practices. Our team of dedicated psychologists and therapists work diligently to ensure that every child gets a good start in life. From the very first well-child visit, our integrated therapists provide preventive care, addressing behavioral and mental health concerns before they escalate. IBH offers consultation, evidence-based interventions, and crisis stabilization —empowering families to navigate challenges effectively.

At the heart of our mission is a commitment to the two-generation model of care, recognizing that the well-being of children is deeply intertwined with the well-being of their families.
