The teen years can bring with them a remarkable number of changes, including changes to your teen’s mental health. With 1 in 5 teens faced with depression before reaching adulthood, it has never been as essential to address the mental wellness challenges.
Addressing challenges in their early stages can help your teen learn the valuable coping and life skills that will stand him in good stead as he approaches adulthood.
What to expect during a stay at Liahona Treatment Center
When facing mental health challenges and working towards mental wellness and recovery, the right supportive environment is key. Some teens may do very well with outpatient therapy sessions. Other teens find that they can better direct their attention to healing when they are in an environment that affords them that focus.
At Liahona Treatment Center, we strive to provide troubled boys with everything they need to focus on their future. Teen boys can expect the following during a stay at our residential treatment center:
- Support. Our facility and our team of professional staff members offer the compassion and support that teens need as they address their challenges.
- Therapy. A vital part of recovery, individual and group counseling will allow your teen to learn how to address his challenges in a healthy way.
- Academics. Teens with mental wellness challenges may struggle to keep up with their school workload. The supportive environment in our residential treatment center allows for a focus on academics. Teens will also have the opportunity to focus on art and music, which can be wonderfully fulfilling.
- Life skills, leadership, and more. Under the supervision of professionals, your teen will learn valuable life skills that will stand him in good stead as he enters the world as an adult. It’s hard enough to transition from teen to adult, but with mental health challenges, it can feel impossible. The proper support is key.
Structure, support, academic focus, and so much more are offered to your teen at Liahona Treatment Center.
What sets us apart
How can you tell whether your teen will thrive during his time at our residential treatment center?
There are certainly dozens of other options where he may find the right type of treatment. At Liahona, we are committed to providing a structured, supportive, therapeutic environment for troubled teens and their families to recover and heal.
We provide resources that have been proven to provide teens with the ability to identify and confront personal challenges and reconnect with their families in a way that supports their mental health.
Developing the right coping strategies can help teens learn to meet challenges in a healthier way, today and in the future. We begin the process with a comprehensive assessment that will allow us to provide the correct treatment solutions.
Your teen will learn to recognize what is responsible for his mental health struggles, and he will be able to learn how to establish and meet his therapeutic goals. Individual and group therapy offers immense benefits for your struggling teen. Facilitated by your teen’s therapist, these sessions will afford him the safe and nurturing space he needs to address his mental health struggles.
We offer daily behavior evaluations to help struggling teens recognize how their choices and behaviors impact them and those around them. They learn to take responsibility for their actions, which can, in turn, help them to work through challenging situations.
Combined with physical fitness training, nutritional education, leadership training, and group activities that get teens active out in nature, each program is specifically tailored to meet the needs of the individual. A schedule allows your teen just the right amount of freedom, with plenty of the structure that he needs to thrive.
At Liahona, we offer more than just therapy. We provide troubled teens the ability to feel at home, at ease, and be as vulnerable as they need to be to meet their mental health challenges head-on.
