IEP/504 Driven Services

ERAED School Based Support

IEP/504 Driven Services

DIS Counseling 

  • ERA ED can provide your Designated Instructional Service counseling to address social/emotional goals on their IEP.  By integrating evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Positive Behavioral Support (PBS), ERA Ed helps students develop coping skills, manage stress, and overcome emotional or behavioral challenges. Through individual or group sessions, ERA Ed empowers students to thrive academically and emotionally, while supporting schools in creating a healthier, more inclusive learning environment.  
  • We are also able to provide Parent Training as part of a student’s DIS offering to provide guidance to a student’s parents that will help support their overall educational goal. 

Onsite Counselors 

  • The on-site counselor position is a fixed, 30-hour weekly position. One counselor can be assigned to 1 or 3 school sites and provides approximately 25 hours weekly of direct counseling support (individual, group, parent) at the school site. The remaining weekly hours would be designated to deliver the following indirect services:  
    • IEP attendance   
    • Goal creation  
    • Consultation with IEP team  
    • Tracking and notifying service dates for the IEP team  
    • Progress Reports  
  • The on-site counselor position  also solves barriers to weekly service delivery, including:  
    • One therapist per site would allow IEP Team members to easily know/identify the counselor with the ability for drop-in/on-site consultation.  
    • The On-Site Counselor would track all IEP Service dates and can provide reminders to IEP teams.  
    • The On-Site Counselor would have the same space/rooms assigned, thereby eliminating daily searches for inconsistent space needs.  

ERICS/ERMHS Counseling 

  • ERA Ed provides specialized services like Educationally Related Intensive Counseling Services (ERICS) and Educationally Related Mental Health Services (ERMHS) to support students with significant emotional and behavioral challenges. Our team of licensed psychologists, mental health professionals, and associates deliver these services through individualized counseling, parent education, and consultation tailored to each student’s unique needs. ERICS and ERMHS are designed to help students overcome barriers to learning by addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral disorders. Using evidence-based practices, ERA Ed works closely with schools to develop and implement personalized plans that ensure students receive the mental health care and support needed to succeed both academically and emotionally. 

Wraparound Services 

  • ERA ED implements a team approach for Wraparound Services, utilizing evidence-based treatments and interventions. Core elements of Wraparound Services are provided in stepwise order: 
    • System stabilization (Assessment as necessary) 
    • Parent Management Training (Parent Counseling and Training, Positive Behavior Supports) 
    • Generalizing supports to the educational environment (Mental Health Consultation/Psychological Services) 
    • Individual counseling (Counseling and Guidance Services) 
    • Family counseling (Counseling and Guidance Services) 
  • The Wraparound (WRAP) team utilizes a registered intern model for direct services (i.e., counseling, positive behavior support) delivered in the home/community setting (e.g., school) with additional consultation and in-office/tele-health (e.g., telephone, video-conferencing) psychotherapy with licensed providers.  All WRAP teams are managed by a licensed psychologist. Behavioral technicians are also available to assist the WRAP team with System stabilization and Parent Management Training in the home and community setting (e.g., school). 
  • The intensity of Wrap services will depend on student need, and may vary across time. A typical WRAP program for a student could consist of 5-7 hours of combined (i.e., direct counseling, positive behavior support) and indirect services weekly. 
Services Provided Include:

ERA ED’s school-based services are derived from evidence-based practices such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Positive Behavioral Support (PBS), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT).
