Healing is a Process In today’s complex world, the journey from child to adult can be treacherous. Young people become derailed by a number of factors both within and outside of their control. Our goal is to provide healing from unresolved trauma, addiction, mood disorders, and other co-occurring issues and restore hope and health. Treatment is a process, one that we begin with a detailed assessment. This helps us get beyond more obvious issues to uncover root causes. We then create a personalized treatment plan that ensures safety, promotes accountability, and provides a sense of ownership of their recovery. As they begin to put into practice what they’re learning, they get feedback from staff and peers, resulting in healing and growth.
