Residential Treatment Centers For Troubled Teens

Youth residential boarding schools are designed to help troubled and at-risk teens make good choices that they can use in every day life. There have been hundreds of teens that have been positively impacted by attending these types of programs. Most residential schools will have therapy that aims at getting to the root of the teens' behavior problems. Each session is conducted by trained specialist that know what to say and do to get the defiant teen to open up.

Along with getting personalized therapy, the teen will be in an environment where education is taught on a daily basis. Each student will get the attention and care they need. Some students and teens have actually graduated early and on track for college. Some boarding schools also teach trades such as tiling, dry wall, welding, wood working etc.

Most residential treatment centers will have not only academics but sports like basketball and football where teens are encouraged to succeed. These programs work hard at providing a healthy setting with proper diet and exercise.

If your troubled teen is addicted to drugs make sure the residential center is equipped to treat teens. Alcohol and marijuana are usually the main drugs teens will take. Sometimes other hard drugs like heroin and meth need special attention.

Some treatment centers can be expensive and cost anywhere from $2,000 - $10,000 per month. We are not aware of any specific grants or loans you can get to help with the costs. There are cheaper programs but some may not be the best fit for you or your teen. For example, some ranch style programs do not offer therapy and some boot camps will not have the ability to help teens with major drug problems.
