Youth Treatment & Adolescent Services

At Youth Treatment/Adolescent Services we

    Provide services that assist youth in successfully abstaining from mind and mood
    altering chemicals.  

    Assist adolescents and their family members in acquiring and coordinating services for a successful recovery.

    Believe that each person is unique.  Our treatment  is respectful to the needs of each individual.

We work in 3 Steps

    Step 1 Pre-Admission: Assessment, testing, evaluations, individual/family, case management.

    Step 2 Treatment groups & individual/family counseling, ongoing case management.

    Step 3 Monitoring, discharge planning, and referral.


Services we provide

Evaluations
As concerns arise about an adolescent, he/she may be referred to our agency
for an evaluation.  This consists of completing a series of testing instruments
and a personal interview with a Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor.  Upon
completion of the assessment, a recommendation is made based on level of need.

Treatment groups
Outpatient groups are offered one time per week for 2 hours.  This program
typically runs for 10 weeks.  Group is held Tuesdays 4:00-6:00pm.  Each individual
will need to complete an evaluation prior to being placed in a group. Please call
ahead so we can begin the process of evaluations and assessment. 

Groups cover alcohol and other drug related issues with the focus on individual
concerns and alternatives to chemical usage, self values, motivation, changes,
family, and more.  Learn more about how treatment works, here.

Individual counseling
Ongoing individual sessions will be scheduled along with groups.  Upon discharge
at the end of the assigned groups, the adolescent will again meet individually
with his/her counselor to discuss discharge and continued care.  Individual
sessions can be arranged by appointment.

Family counseling
Family counseling is important for the recovery and continued well being of the
adolescent.  Family sessions can be arranged by appointment.  We encourage you
to call with any questions or concerns.

Continuing Care
Continuing care services are available for adolescents who have completed
inpatient or outpatient treatment and need continued support. Individual sessions
and group sessions are both encouraged and can be arranged by appointment.

Monitoring
Treatment maintenance is the next step after completion of primary treatment.
Monitoring groups are offered one time per month.  This is an ongoing process for
the adolescent, for up to one year. 

Case Management
Liaison services are available and strongly encouraged.  These services include
coordinating and monitoring services, assisting with necessary resources, and
providing personal support and guidance in helping the adolescent and his/her
family acquire comprehensive integrated services.

Other Services
We offer intervention, referrals, evaluations, and minor in possession programs. 
Community prevention/education specialists are also available to speak to groups
and/or provide technical help in developing prevention programs.
