At this center, you receive personalized care for mental health conditions. They provide therapy and tailor treatment to your unique needs, diagnoses, and preferences.

This provider treats children and adolescents ages 6 to 17 who face emotional and behavioral challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts. The inpatient hospital offers 24/7 care in a structured setting that promotes safety, emotional growth, and active family involvement. The team uses trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and trust-based relational intervention (TBRI) model to help children process experiences and strengthen coping skills. Therapists lead daily group and individual sessions, while recreational and art therapies encourage creative, movement-based healing. A certified therapy dog joins therapeutic activities to support connection and ease. Clients stay in a 28-bed hospital with structured routines and on-site education during the week. Staff serve three meals and multiple snacks daily, and a nutritionist plans each menu. Children participate in therapy groups, life skills sessions, and recreational activities in shared indoor spaces designed for movement, reflection, and emotional support.
