Skills Training & Case Management for Children

Helping Kids Calm Big Feelings and Helping Parents Find Relief

Skills Training and Case Management from CK Family Services helps children ages 3–17 learn practical, everyday skills to manage emotions, build better habits, and succeed at home, in school, and in life.

Delivered by qualified mental health professionals, these services focus on replacing emotion-driven reactions with thoughtful, healthy responses helping children and caregivers find calm, connection, and stability.

Support is provided in your home, community, or via telehealth, and is available to families covered by Texas Medicaid (STAR or STAR Health).

What It Feels Like

When your family works with CK Family Services, a caring professional meets you right where you are often in your living room, sometimes at your child’s school, or even by video if that’s easier.
They sit with you, listen, and help untangle the stress you’ve been carrying.

Your child learns practical steps to handle anger, social anxiety, frustration, and impulse control; skills like:

• Using words instead of tantrums
• Calming down before reacting
• Respecting personal space and boundaries
• Making positive choices, even under stress

You gain tools and confidence to guide your child through tough moments and celebrate progress along the way.

Families often tell us it feels like having a trusted teammate who brings calm to the chaos and helps the system finally make sense.

Getting help for your child doesn’t have to be overwhelming.

A CK Family Services professional can walk with you, right where you are, to bring calm and support into your home.
