FBTA began in 1985 as an in-home therapy provider, addressing a significant gap in mental health services in the region surrounding St. Cloud, MN. FBTA soon became an award-winning therapy practice and expanded to the three locations that exist today. Sheila and Randall built FBTA on these founding principles:
- The process of change benefits from constructive and research-based feedback from providers who are experienced, continually learning, and genuinely care for their clients.
- Individuals and families come from diverse backgrounds and deserve providers who practice cultural humility.
- Hope, social support, education, and a willingness to change provide a solid foundation for therapeutic progress. Shame, criticism, and judgment have no place in FBTA’s services.
