About Therapeutic Strength-Based Services

Therapeutic Strength-Based Services (TSS) was created with one clear purpose: to support students through care that is respectful, collaborative, and rooted in strengths rather than labels. We provide strength-based services to students, families, and schools across Ohio, working closely with educational teams to help children build emotional skills, improve behavior, and succeed academically.

Who we are?

We envision Ohio schools where every student feels supported, capable, and empowered.

Our mission is to support students and schools by delivering strength-based, child-centered services that promote emotional well-being, positive behavior, and academic growth

Our Value

WHY STRENGTH-BASED MATTERS

A strength-based approach recognizes that every child has abilities, protective factors, and potential—regardless of the challenges they may face.
Rather than focusing only on what isn’t working, TSS:

  • identifies existing strengths
  • builds upon successful behaviors
  • reinforces positive coping strategies
  • supports growth in real-life settings

This approach helps students feel supported instead of singled out, increasing engagement and long-term progress.

Our Vision

Our vision is to help create educational environments where children:

- feel emotionally safe
- develop healthy coping skills
- build confidence and resilience
- remain engaged in learning

Our Mission

We believe meaningful progress happens when services are:

- respectful of each child’s dignity
- aligned with educational goals
- delivered consistently
- focused on long-term skill development
