ADOLESCENT

The effective treatment of adolescents with substance use and behavioral disorders requires attention to every aspect their lives. It is vital that those providing services for adolescents, understand the balance between working with the family and thier teen.  We see every individual as a whole being.  In addition to fully understanding the emotional, developmental, physical, psychological, familial, social and cultural factors, there must be appropriate resources in place to address these issues. Ashwood Recovery works closely with struggling adolescents, their families and referring professionals.

Every adolescent that enters our program recieves a thourough assessment and treatment plan, outlining the recommendations.  While the primary focus is on the need to achieve sobriety, other issues such as mental health, behavioral problems, eating disorders, cross-addictions, low self-esteem, anger management and family dysfunction will be assessed and addressed for the greatest success of our clients and their families.
