Michigan-based telehealth services

CED maintained a brick and mortar presence in downtown Ann Arbor since it was founded. However, in response to the impact of the recent public health crisis, we transitioned to telehealth-based services. Our clients and their families have responded very well to the privacy and flexibility provided by telehealth-delivered treatment; and we have been pleased to see that the virtual platform extends access to our services to people across our entire state of Michigan.

To maintain a physical footprint in downtown Ann Arbor, CED has affiliated with the NEW Center (Non-Profit Enterprise At Work) Center located at 1100 North Main Street in Ann Arbor, a community organization created to support, develop, and provide services for local non-profits.

While treatment and other programs will continue via telehealth, CED educational and training workshops will be offered periodically at the NEW Center location.
