Therapies

Individual Therapy

Each teen attends multiple weekly sessions with expert clinicians. In addition, psychiatrists are part of the personal Treatment Team.

Attachment-Based Family Therapy

We use Attachment-Based Family Therapy to strengthen the emotionally protective, secure-based, parent-child relationship while promoting adolescent autonomy.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

This evidence-based approach alleviates distress resulting from PTSD and traumatic memories, by adapting the way the brain processes information.

Family Therapy

We treat adolescents in the context of the entire family. Family members participate in weekly therapy, recovery work, and monitored group activities on weekends.

Group Therapy Program

Daily group therapy sessions allow residents to build healthy relationships, support one another, and discuss the healing process together.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Our therapists use CBT and Trauma-Focused CBT to identify and modify thought and behavior patterns to create shifts from negative to positive mindset.

DBT-Informed Skills

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)–informed skills help residents modify the unhealthy behaviors they used to cope with deeper underlying issues.

Body Image Group

This therapeutic process group provides a gender-specific, safe, and supportive environment. Hence, teens can express their concerns about body perceptions and external appearance.

Psychiatry

We perform a thorough clinical assessment to determine each incoming resident’s specific needs and create an individualized treatment plan that encompasses a variety of counseling and therapeutic modalities.

Gender-Responsive Care

Clients’ preferred gender identity is honored with inclusivity, acceptance, and support within the treatment milieu, while related issues become the focus of individual and family therapy.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines acceptance and mindfulness with commitment and behavior-change strategies to increase psychological flexibility.

Relational Trauma Repair

This interactive experiential modality includes therapeutic exercises to help heal the impact of relational trauma and attachment wounds, through practicing skills for connection and bonding.

Person-Centered or Humanistic Therapy

This modality engages teens with unconditional positive regard, compassion, and empathy, allowing them to feel accepted, seen, and understood.
