Outpatient programming for adolescents focuses on emotional, behavioral and social needs of each individual using an integrated approach to recovery. Our mind-body recovery approach addresses personal, familial and community-based issues faced by the individual.

The goal of our program is to support youth in identifying strategies they and their families can use to cope with the challenges they face. Learning life and social skills, emotional processing and activity and expressive therapies all take place in a group setting to allow youth to learn from others, gain support and accomplish their recovery goals. We address their health and wellness needs within a positive and affirming environment. Programming is offered in varying intensities. We work with adolescents ages 12 and up.
