Maple Shade Youth & Family Services, Inc Crisfield – Somerset County

Maple Shade Youth & Family Services, Inc. is a JCAHO-accredited nonprofit mental health agency serving children, adolescents and families at its Crisfield outpatient clinic in Somerset County, Maryland.

The organization offers individual, family and group counseling alongside psychiatric rehabilitation and medication management for conditions including anxiety, depression, ADHD and bipolar disorder.

I've found that they have been around since 1997. Since then, Maple Shade has focused on meeting families where they are, providing flexible care in clinics, schools, homes and the community across Maryland's Lower Eastern Shore.

Youth and Family Mental Health Care on the Eastern Shore

Maple Shade specializes in treating children ages 5 to 17 and their families who are facing behavioral and emotional challenges.

Therapists use approaches such as cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, play and solution-focused therapies to help the youth build coping skills. I've noted the benefits of the Crisfield clinic offering GeneSight genomic testing to guide medication decisions, ensuring treatment plans are personalized from the start.

Wraparound Support Beyond the Therapy Room

Maple Shade's Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program extends therapeutic support into the home and community. This wraparound model helps families apply skills learned in therapy to real-life situations, with staff available during day or evening to assist with parenting challenges.

Getting Started with Maple Shade

Maple Shade primarily accepts Medical Assistance Insurance, with sliding scale and self-pay options available.

The Crisfield clinic serves Somerset, Wicomico, Worcester, and Dorchester Counties through in-person visits, school-based therapy, home visits and telehealth.
