The most widely read weekly newsletter in the teen treatment industry.
Our weekly newsletters offer timely news and updates related to teen mental health, treatment, and the latest research in the field. Our content is delivered to top clinicians, parents, and our broader community, ever expanding the reach of Newport Academy.
Accreditation, Licensing, & Affiliations
Our innovative approach to mental healthcare earns accolades from press around the world, but it is our dedication to our client success that has helped us achieve accreditation from The Joint Commission, exceed licensing standards of care, and nurture affiliations with the following:
“I can be the leader in my family by educating myself about teen mental health and the role the whole family unit plays in it.”
Life as it once was has shifted. As a result, 70 percent of teens report experiencing mental health challenges. Some young people may be facing what is known as situational depression, which is different from clinical depression, but still requires treatment since any kind of depression can increase the risk of suicide.

According to @tmentalhealth, 1 in 5 young people suffers from a mental illness.
Today is #worldmentalhealthday and we want to #stopthestigma with a resource to help educate and aid conversations because mental health concerns are real and treatable.
Learn more about teenage depression and why it needs to be taken seriously via our profile.
A lot of schools have gone virtual, but bullying is still IRL.
Shame, fear, and hard-to-spot outward signs make it tough for parents to see the signs of bullying. Don’t be a victim of not knowing what to look for. Help #stompoutbullying by going to our link in bio to learn the signs and types of bullying and what can be done for both bullies and the bullied.

Yoga helps build self-regulation and executive brain functioning skills—that’s why it may help prevent risky teenage behaviors. When practiced in a therapeutic environment, the breathing, stretching, and poses of yoga help teens gain confidence and can provide a safe space to process emotions.
Yoga is so effective for supporting teen mental health that it is one of the experiential therapies used in Newport Academy’s outcomes-driven program for addressing conditions like depression, anxiety, and co-occurring disorders such as substance abuse.
So take a deep breath and then head to our link in bio to discover more benefits of engaging in mindful disciplines like yoga. 🧘🏽♂️🧘🏻♀️
“Vulnerability, authenticity, and transparency are some of the most important things to me in life. As many of you know, they are also values that I struggle with the most.
When @newportacademy and @twloha reached out to me this year to once again participate in telling my story for World Suicide Prevention Day, I felt altogether honored and completely unqualified to give a story of hope during times like these. A global pandemic, the largest civil rights movement in history, and a reality check for all of humanity will inevitably shake us at our core in all ways possible.
From the moment stay-at-home orders went into effect I began to think of all the negative ways this was going to impact my life and the life of others. I began to slip back into behaviors that lead me to get to help in the first place and I hadn’t felt so ashamed in such a long time. During quarantine, I’ve been back in dark places that I swore I would never see again and encountered even darker places I had never known.
All the while I’ve been living with my best friends, been a part of a historic movement for racial equity, got to go back to the comfort of my home, continued my education, landed the internship of my dreams, and have been able to experience things that would have never been possible if life didn’t force me to slow down—force us all to slow down. That’s when it hit me, I am still alive today for whatever reason God decided to wake me up again this morning, to experience all these things big and small because my life is #WorthLivingFor and my story is not over.
To honor vulnerability, authenticity and transparency I’m going to share what #IAmLivingFor—the little things that keep me going. It’s community. It’s my dogs who double as my bestest friends for all of eternity. It’s getting educated and educating others on what’s going on around us and in the world. It’s early morning runs on the beach followed by really great, but really overpriced LA coffee. Most importantly, it’s you. I live for simple human connection and to see others thrive despite adversity and it is an honor to do life with you.” - @divinadavidds, Alumnus
#WSPD2020 #TWLOHA #WSPD
Suicide prevention awareness doesn’t stop when September is over.
We’re grateful to our friends @twloha for all they’ve done to get the message out that there’s a lot #worthlivingfor.
As the preeminent provider of #teenmentalhealth treatment, we were honored to have once again provided a matching grant of $10,000 for their campaign and are here to continue their message of hope and healing from #mentalhealth conditions and co-occurring disorders.
Please consider joining us—and link in bio to read more on preventing suicide in the youth population.
Can our eyes heal our minds?
One of the many treatments we use at Newport Academy and @newport_institute to heal trauma is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR)—an evidence-based therapy that uses eye movements in connection with memories to dissolve the stressors associated with them.
EMDR has many other benefits—peek at our link in bio to learn more!

It seemed like it was just teen moodiness, but it was actually depression.
For your teenager’s protection, it’s crucial to be empowered to recognize the difference between age-appropriate mood swings and what may be something more serious. #Depression can cause intense feelings and emotions, but it is treatable.
For young people suffering from depression or other mental health conditions, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help reframe negativity and develop long-term coping skills.
Learn more about this healing clinical modality that’s a key component of our #teenmentalhealth treatment program—link in bio or call us to talk confidentially to an Admissions Advisor: (844) 565-5316.
Suicide is the second leading cause of death among 15-29 year-olds globally.
The urgency around suicide prevention has been championed by our friends at @TWLOHA and we’re proud to stand with them for the 4th year in a row in raising awareness, providing education, and creating conversations around mental health to show people that there is so much #worthlivingfor.
We’re honored to have offered a matching grant of $10,000 toward their efforts to raise funds to provide treatment to those in need—which has already been met! However, your donation can still help TWLOHA reach its overall goal of $250,000. There are still many ways to get involved in any way you can and make what could be the difference between life and death.

We address the “why,” not just the “what,” of destructive behaviors. That translates to focusing on the #underlyingcauses, not just the symptoms of mental health concerns. Our treatment model is backed with the data of thousands of success stories and #changedlives.
If you or someone you love needs mental health treatment, reach out to us today. Newport Academy is for teens and @newport_institute is for young adults looking for #healingtrauma.
Link in bio to get started or call (833) 801-7181 to have questions answered personally and confidentially.
We started more than 12 years ago with a female residential treatment center that offered an innovative mental healthcare alternative for teens and their families. Newport is honored to have recently been recognized by @Bloomberg for our philosophy based on compassion: “The whole mentality is ‘We’re going to love you so you can love yourself - it’s not a shame-based’ program.”
Today, we also offer male and nonbinary residential treatment programs in addition to outpatient, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, and telehealth programs. That means our reach now extends to teens, young adults, families, and loved ones. 🙌🏼
We invite you to discover more about our new sister program @newport_institute, a different kind of mental health treatment for young adults. Link in bio.
#mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthtreatment #residentialtreatment
“I can provide a bridge for my teen's #healing by considering an outpatient level of care for their mental health treatment.”
Newport offers a complimentary and confidential assessment during which a complete history will be taken and the appropriate level of care will be recommended. Options include Residential, Intensive Outpatient, and Partial Hospitalization.
