Key aspects of our recovery program

Some programs for troubled youth fall short by discounting elements necessary for successful treatment. Without these factors, a teen’s recovery journey is more difficult than it needs to be. To enhance our residents’ outcomes, we’ve integrated three fundamental components into our programs:

Family Involvement

  • We involve families in treatment with family therapy, updates, and aftercare planning for smooth reintegration.

Academic Support

  • We prioritize education during treatment, providing academic support, tutoring, and workload management strategies.

Medication Management

  • For teens needing additional support, we offer comprehensive medication management to complement therapy and improve recovery outcomes.
