I noticed that the clinic has evidence based addiction treatment that lasts at least three months. They focus on addressing denial and other barriers to treatment as well as coping skills, values and self esteem. Participants can also present their own discussion topics.
Group Therapy Options for Youth
I really liked the fact that they have a wide variety of group options for young people. The Happiness in Social Situations group is for kids struggling with behavioral issues at school or home. It presents scenarios and helps the kids talk through how to handle them in healthy ways.
The Choose Now Group is for teens who are making risky decisions, which may include substance use. The group provides a framework for healthy decision-making and points out where poor choices can lead. Group activities include videos, trips and presentations from others who have made similar choices.
