Common Treatment Questions
Does teen treatment work?
Teen treatment is very effective for helping teens uncover to the root cause of their mental health issues and gain the tools they need to manage symptoms and thrive in life again.
How is teen therapy different from residential and outpatient care?
Teen therapy typically takes place on a weekly basis. For residential treatment, teens live on site and take part in a structured schedule that includes clinical and experiential therapies as well as an educational component. Outpatient treatment offers flexible daily schedule that allows patients to return home in the evening.
Do you offer gender-responsive care at your youth treatment center?
At Newport Academy, our gender-responsive teen mental health centers treat teens according to their gender identity, recognizing them as their authentic selves.
Where are your teen treatment centers located nationwide?
Newport has 70+ residential programs and 20+ outpatient programs in states across the country in Northern California, Southern California, Utah, Connecticut, Minnesota, Virginia, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and more. We have several options to meet your geographical and treatment needs. Learn more about our treatment locations.
How can you help a teenager with mental health issues?
Seeking treatment can help your child process unresolved trauma and develop the tools they need to learn emotion regulation, build healthy relationships, set boundaries, and improve self-worth.
What's the best way to help teens who need drug rehab?
For teens who need drug rehab, the most effective programs offer treatment for both substance use disorder and mental health conditions. Teen drug rehab should address underlying causes of substance use, such as depression, anxiety, OCD, or other mental health issues. In addition, drug rehab for teens should include a family component, to strengthen communication and restore trust between teens and their parents.
What should I expect during an assessment at an adolescent treatment center?
You can expect a supportive and confidential environment where a mental health professional will provide a combination of interviews, questionnaires, and potentially behavioral observations to gather information about your teen’s mental health, symptoms, and overall functioning. The evaluation helps determine a diagnosis and informs their treatment plan.
What insurance plans do you accept?
Newport works with several major insurance providers to optimize care, including Optum, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Kaiser Permanente, TRICARE, and more.
What therapy is best for adolescents?
Evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and EMDR provide a comprehensive approach to addressing the diverse mental health needs of adolescents, providing the tools to process trauma, build resilience, and improve emotional well-being.
