Top-notch adolescent mental health experts

Learn strategies for boosting psychological wellness

At Avery’s House, we recognize the uniqueness of every teen—their individual stories, challenges, and strengths. Keeping this in mind, we tailor our programs for troubled youth to meet the needs of each young person in our care. Our highly qualified adolescent mental health professionals combine years of experience with empathy and understanding. This approach creates a foundation of trust, making it easier for teens to share thoughts and feelings. 

Three factors that ensure a successful

recovery journey 

Some troubled teens programs fall short because they overlook factors crucial for effective treatment. This oversight can make it difficult for adolescents to overcome mental health challenges. At Avery’s House, we don’t make this mistake. To maximize the chances of a successful recovery, we’ve incorporated three essential elements into our residential treatment program:

Family Involvement

  • We encourage family participation throughout treatment, recognizing its vital importance in recovery. Our approach includes family therapy sessions and regular progress updates. We also provide meticulous aftercare planning to ensure a seamless return to everyday life.

Academic Support

  • We provide comprehensive educational services to ensure that teens stay on track with their schooling while in treatment. Our support includes help with getting assignments done on time, one-to-one tutoring, and teaching skills for managing academic workloads to prevent overwhelm.

Medication Management

  • Some teens require more than therapy to overcome mental health challenges, which is why we offer comprehensive medication management for those who need it. We ensure that every prescription is tailored to the unique needs of each teen, accurately dispensed, and rigorously monitored.

Director of Community Relations

In our troubled teen programs, we provide clinical support that addresses a wide range of behavioral and mental health conditions, including   

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Suicidal and self-harm thoughts
  • Bullying and victimization
  • ADHD and other attention difficulties
  • Substance use disorders
  • Trauma and adverse life experiences
  • Family and relationship problems

Note: While we strive to provide comprehensive care, there are conditions we’re not equipped to manage. Regrettably, we’re unable to offer treatment for teens with a history of arson or other serious criminal activities, severe substance abuse, aggressive behavior, significant sexual issues, or other extreme diagnoses.
