Adolescent Mental Health Residential Treatment Centers
Adolescent mental health residential treatment centers are designed to serve boys and girls with serious emotional and behavioral problems combined with substance abuse or addiction issues. Although admission criteria (typical adolescent client) vary these centers usually work with adolescents who have multiple presenting issues. Our recommendation is that parents of troubled adolescents look for mental health residential treatment centers that specifically cater to the psychological and psychiatric needs of troubled teens.
The best Mental Health Residential Treatment Centers for Boys and Girls
The goal of mental health residential treatment is to deal with the acute psychological and psychiatric issues and return the adolescent to a less restrictive environment as soon as possible. The best centers provide on going aftercare (intensive in-home therapeutic services) after discharge, usually through an outpatient basis. Aftercare is critical to the overall success of any residential treatment center providing mental health services to adolescents.
