Gateway Longview – Downtown Clinic

About Gateway Longview – Downtown Clinic – Buffalo, New York

Gateway Longview – Downtown Clinic offers outpatient behavioral health care to young people ages 3 to 21 and their parents or caregivers. Their Downtown Clinic is based in Buffalo, New York, but they also run several satellite locations from schools all over New York.

The Downtown Clinic helps children dealing with moderate substance abuse issues, grief, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, bullying, and other challenges impacting their wellbeing. They offer individual therapy and family therapy as well as skills development and crisis intervention. If needed, they also offer intensive individual therapy.

When working with children and teenagers, contemporary talk therapy isn’t always the best course of action to take. They may struggle to find words for their experiences, or simply not respond to talk treatment. Along with traditional talk therapy techniques, Gateway Longview also uses several unique therapeutic methods including progressive counting, sensory motor therapy, and art therapy.

For younger children experiencing behavioral health challenges, therapists use methods like play therapy. Play therapy involves using toys and games to help kids communicate their emotions and thoughts. This method meets children at their developmental level and helps them process difficult situations or memories.
