Supporting Teens and Their Families

Teens today are dealing with unique types of challenges — from living in the digital world to struggling with social pressure and identity, it’s not easy and can cause issues with mental health and substance use when attempting to deal with the stress of everyday life.

We proudly curated the best teen mental health treatment programs available, to support you or your teen through these tough circumstances and to help you create the happy and healthy life you deserve.

The Clear Teen treatment programs offer clinical, medical, and experiential therapies, including art, music, mindfulness and writing, as well as helping teens develop healthy relationships as part of their recovery from mental health disorders and unhealthy coping mechanisms.

Comprehensive Mental Health Treatment

Proven to Heal the Whole Family

We know each teen is unique, and we are proud to provide amazing mental health treatment and levels of care specifically catered to them. That’s why Clear’s Teen Mental Health Treatment Program offers two unique options:

  • Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
  • Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

We have found family participation is key to sustainable healing. At our PHP and IOP levels of care, we engage families in multi-family therapy groups, monthly family sessions, and weekly family updates. Our approach ensures clients and their families benefit from supportive community alongside our licensed and credentialed experts.

    What to Expect from Clear Behavioral Health

    We offer a wide-range of evidence-based treatment options to help teens build up their life.  Most teens start at the PHP level of care and participate in therapy 5 days a week for 6 hours a day. After PHP, clients step down into IOP and participate 3 to 5 days a week for 3 hours a day.

    All of our mental health and addiction treatment programs provide:

    • A supportive and caring community of therapists, mentors and peers on the healing journey
    • Personalized treatment based on an in-depth assessment on your condition to meet each teen’s unique needs and goals
    • Dedicated support from an integrated team of licensed and credentialed experts who are passionate about bringing authenticity, connection and mentorship to their work with teens
    • Holistic options including art, music, mindfulness, sound healing, yoga and meditation for sustaining ongoing mental wellness

    Our Teen Specific Mental Health Treatment Program

    Each of our mental health and addiction treatment programs offer individual therapy, group therapy with peers in the same age group, and individual counseling using evidence-based therapy modalities and clinical expertise. In addition to these services, our teen programs offer a range of tailored components designed to meet the unique needs of adolescents, including:

    • Multi-family Therapy Groups: Our weekly multi-family groups provide rich psychoeducational and experiential learning to help your family heal as a whole. These groups are the backbone of our community-based treatment approach, as families can connect with other families also in the program.
    • Monthly Family Therapy Sessions: Your teen’s therapist leads individual family therapy sessions every month. These sessions offer an intimate setting for your family to work through your teens’ condition and grow together as they make progress through our program.
    • Weekly Family Updates: Each teen’s counselor schedules weekly phone calls with parents and other caregivers to discuss progress, and concerns, and field any questions throughout treatment.
    • Teen-Focused Care: Our clinicians are trained to work with adolescents and their unique issues using specialized treatment modalities, including dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, solution-focused techniques, and art therapy, all while working through a family systems framework.
    • Academic Support: As a primarily after-school program, your teen can continue taking classes while attending our program. To promote balance and support, an educational consultant works with you twice a week to help your teen with their schoolwork. Additionally, our team can coordinate with schools to advocate for home-hospital accommodations or other specialized academic plans.

      I can’t say enough good things about Clear Behavioral Health. The care that I received was exceptional. The staff are very professional and committed to providing outstanding treatment. They go out of their way to cultivate an atmosphere of compassion, awareness, and recovery.

      The multi-pronged approach; the counselors, individual therapy, nutrition, sympathetic/empathetic counselors of each group session shifted my brain paths. You are never finished there, even when you “graduate”, they hold alumni group sessions when you feel you need it. I have nothing but gratitude for their program.

    • star star star star star

      Clear Behavioral Health is my second family that I never knew I had that supported me and continues to passionately support the sober community. The therapists, counselors and group facilitators have been amazing in helping me have a voice, loving myself again, and seeing the world in a new light. I am eternally grateful.

      From the get go, the staff made me feel welcome and were all very friendly. My therapist and case manager were also very helpful and supportive throughout the whole process. I found that the somatic therapy was the most valuable for me, the therapist who ran those groups was great. My biggest takeaway from treatment was to take the time to pause, not be afraid to ask for help, and not worry about things in the moment. If you are looking for meaningful change and being part of a new and supportive community, then Clear Behavioral Health is the right fit.

      Overall I loved the experience and did not want to leave. The staff was very helpful and motivated me to stay even when I felt like running away. I also built meaningful connections with my therapist and case manager who gave me a lot of useful advice and are still supporting me today. Since leaving, my family and sponsor have noticed a big difference, and I could not recommend a more supportive environment for addiction and mental health treatment, Clear saved my life.
