For Teens. With Teens. A Brighter Future Awaits.
The life of a teenager in today’s society is not easy. They’re neither children nor adults. They’re walking the line between young and mature, making for a confusing and often frustrating journey.[1]
This provides a complex and dynamic challenge when it comes to mental and behavioral health treatment. Holistic treatment interventions must address each teen’s experience from the inside out and provide a unique approach to complement their unique experience.
That’s what we do at BasePoint Academy. Our teen-focused treatment center was founded to serve the teenage population in our area and provide effective, lasting solutions to improve their holistic well-being and their quality of life.
Crisis Stabilization
While we know it’s impossible to completely avoid every form of adversity, it does not mean that everyone, especially teens, is well-equipped to face it. Crises can be triggered by circumstances, significant life changes, environmental influences, and even family issues.
Our teen crisis stabilization services are a critical component of our mental health treatment. They can help reduce acute symptoms of behavioral and mental health issues and provide teens access to the support they need when under elevated levels of stress.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
A partial hospitalization program offers the intense, comprehensive daily care your teen may need in early recovery without checking into a residential program. This program is a good fit to holistically treat substance abuse, mental health issues, dual diagnosis, or other behavioral health concerns.
This level of care offers full-day treatment along with daily educational guidance while still having the ability to go home and participate in family life. The PHP treatment program at BasePoint Academy provides a safe and supportive environment for your teen to be heard, seen, and empowered.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
An intensive outpatient program offers the same depth of care as a partial hospitalization program but with more schedule flexibility. This level of care is a good fit for teens who have already completed a PHP or inpatient program or need additional support that a standard outpatient program can’t provide.
In an IOP program, teens will develop a strong sense of personal autonomy and be prepared to eventually reintegrate back into their daily routines. Holistic treatments include medication management, group therapy, family therapy, individual therapy, and education counseling.[2]
Relapse Prevention
Early recovery from substance use and mental health disorders is a vulnerable time for teens. This is in the midst of an already vulnerable time as they navigate the teenage experience. This phase of treatment is often when your teen will be most susceptible to relapse in either behavior patterns or substance use.[3]
It’s important to provide teens with a clear and practical plan for relapse prevention. This plan will help them maintain connections with their clinicians and support staff as well as continue to implement essential coping strategies they learned throughout their program.
