Community-based, person-centered services for individuals enrolled in DDCS (formerly known as DDA)

  • Our approach is trauma-informed, relationship-based, and grounded in Mandt System principles. We prioritize safety, dignity, and respect while supporting individuals and teams through complex, real-world situations.

    We emphasize prevention, skill building, and consistency, delivering services in community settings with strategies that can be sustained by families and teams over time.

    1. Compassion is at the heart of our work. We lead with empathy, kindness, and respect, honoring the dignity, experiences, and humanity of every individual we serve.

    2. Integrity guides our actions. We hold ourselves to high ethical and professional standards and strive to act with honesty, accountability, and transparency in all that we do.

    3. Collaboration is essential to meaningful support. We work closely with individuals, families, caregivers, and community partners, recognizing that lasting progress is built through shared understanding and teamwork.

    4. Empowerment drives our approach. We focus on skill-building, self-determination, and practical support that fosters confidence, independence, and long-term stability.

    5. Inclusivity is a core commitment. We believe everyone deserves access to quality support and a sense of belonging, and we work to create spaces that are welcoming, respectful, and responsive to diverse needs.

  • If you are enrolled in DDCS/DDA, your Case Manager can help determine eligibility and service authorization.

    Family Testimonial

    Family Testimonial

  • "Our family has worked with many therapists over the years, but none have had the impact that PNW Roots Behavior Therapy and Counseling has. From the very beginning our Stabilization Supervisor truly listened to our concerns and took proactive steps to ensure we found the support our daughter desperately needed. Her guidance, empathy, and commitment made such a difference. Thanks to her support, our daughter is now entering a program that will be life-changing and provide her with the tools she needs to succeed. We are so grateful for the entire team at PNW Roots for their dedication and care in helping us navigate this challenging journey."
