Addiction Treatment

Adolescent Intervention Group

The Adolescent Addiction Clinic serves young people from ages 12 to 17. This family-centered clinic is designed to address the unique needs of teens with substance abuse problems. The adolescent clinic includes:

  • Initial assessment by a treatment team — a psychiatrist specializing in adolescents and substance abuse, a licensed alcohol and drug counselor credentialed in adolescent care, and a nurse
  • Group sessions for teens and parents
  • Individual sessions

The Adolescent Clinic is served by the same highly trained staff as the other addiction services. A doctor supervises all care so that any coexisting mental or physical health issues can be addressed in the treatment plan.
