Empowering teens to build confidence, manage emotions, and thrive!
Our Adolescent Outpatient Program provides a safe, supportive, and skill-focused environment for youth ages 13–17. Through group therapy, individual sessions, and optional medication management, we help teens develop tools for lifelong resilience.
Our program helps teens ages 13–17 who are dealing with emotional, social, or mental health challenges. We focus on three main parts of treatment:
Group Therapy – learning and growing together
Individual Therapy – one-on-one support with your therapist
Medication Management – meeting with a provider to make sure medications (if used) are safe and helpful
We also believe your family plays a big role in your success, so we include them in your journey whenever possible.
Your family or caregivers are an important part of your progress. They’ll have opportunities to learn skills, join family sessions, and support you along the way.
• Family sessions: Up to once a month or as needed
• Topics include: Better communication, setting healthy boundaries, and understanding what you’re learning in treatment.
