Find help for your struggling teen at Avery’s House
At Avery’s House, we know how heartbreaking it can be to watch your child struggle with mental health challenges. We’ve seen it many times: parents feeling utterly helpless, with a nagging fear that they’re not doing enough. For those on this lonely journey, we offer a lifeline: specialized treatment that meets teens’ unique needs through a compassionate, supportive community and powerful tools for building a brighter future.
A Healing Haven
- The world can feel overwhelming for a struggling teen—endless demands, intense social media pressures, and the weight of others’ expectations. We offer a sanctuary where your teen can simply be without needing to pretend everything’s okay—making lasting transformation easier.
Convenient Locations
- We know that being there for your child throughout treatment is a top priority. Our adolescent mental health centers are strategically located for easy access from a variety of neighborhoods, allowing you to stay connected and play a vital role in your teen’s recovery.
A Home Away from Home
- At Avery’s House, we understand that cold, clinical settings can exacerbate a teen’s anxieties. That’s why we’ve created a comfortable, home-like setting with a warm atmosphere. This nurturing environment reduces stress, allowing your teen to focus fully on their recovery journey.
What we treat
Our highly specialized team of behavioral health professionals is skilled at evaluating, diagnosing, and stabilizing a variety of conditions, including
- Depression and bipolar disorder
- Anxiety disorders
- ADHD and other attention difficulties
- PTSD
- Suicidal ideation and self-harm thoughts
- Substance use disorders (dual diagnosis)
- Bullying and victimization

Note: We don’t treat adolescents with a history of arson or other serious crimes or those struggling with heavy substance abuse, aggressive behaviors, significant sexual issues, or other extreme diagnoses.
Building brighter futures by empowering teens
At Avery’s House, we see the devastating impact of untreated mental health challenges on teens and their families. That’s why we offer solution-oriented treatment focused on lasting change. Here are a few key aspects of our approach:
- Tools to conquer challenges: Your teen will gain practical coping skills for managing anxiety, stress, and difficult emotions.
- Stronger family bonds: Our programs support the entire family, fostering healthy communication and deeper understanding.
- Renewed self-confidence: Your teen will rediscover their strengths, embrace their unique potential, and develop a positive outlook.
- Healing past wounds: We offer a safe space to process trauma and find relief from lingering pain.
Our Arizona houses
We operate two state-of-the-art adolescent residential treatment centers in the heart of Maricopa County, Arizona. One is conveniently located in Apache Junction and the other in Fountain Hills In these peaceful environments, teens get the compassionate care they need to successfully overcome mental health challenges.
Outpatient treatment for teens
We also offer a partial hospitalization program (PHP) in Scottsdale. It provides teens the support they need to function better at home, school, and in the community.
Program Schedule
- Our PHP runs Monday to Friday, providing the consistency your teen needs to make meaningful progress on their recovery journey.
Program Length
- Teens typically remain in the program for six weeks, but participation length varies based on clinical recommendations and individual needs.
Program Setting
- Because open expression is critical to healing and growth, ours is a judgment-free setting where teens can honestly discuss feelings, problems, and concerns.
