Factors that drive successful recovery

Some troubled teen programs miss the mark by failing to incorporate elements necessary for successful treatment. Without these factors, an adolescent’s recovery journey is more arduous than it needs to be. To ensure positive outcomes for our residents, we’ve integrated three fundamental components into our treatment:

Family involvement

  • We involve families in treatment with therapy sessions, progress updates, and aftercare planning to ensure a smooth transition back to daily life.

Academic support

  • We prioritize education during treatment, offering assignment help, one-on-one tutoring, and study skills training to keep teens on track academically.

Medication Management

  • For teens needing more than therapy, we offer tailored medication management to support effective treatment and recovery.

A nurturing, safe space that feels like home 

If you’re considering residential treatment for your Tucson teen, you might be worried about how they’ll handle being away from home. If so, that’s understandable. After all, your child’s safety and well-being are your top priorities as a parent. To help ease such concerns, we’ve created a supportive and nurturing space for teens struggling with mental health challenges. Here are some reassuring aspects of our program:

Close to Home

  • Our center is located in Phoenix, just a short drive from Tucson. Because we’re close, it’s easy for Tucson families to visit regularly and stay up to date on their teen’s progress. It’s comforting to know your child is right around the corner, receiving the top-notch care and support they need.

A Safe Haven

  • Avery’s House is a haven of healing, a place where adolescents can take a much-needed break from everyday pressures and stress to focus fully on recovery. By equipping your child with the coping skills they need to confidently tackle daily challenges, we boost their resilience.

A Comforting Alternative

  • Because we understand how crucial a nurturing atmosphere is for teens in treatment, we’ve designed an inviting residential treatment center that feels like home. Avery’s House is a welcome alternative to traditional treatment options, which sometimes feel cold and impersonal.
