Residential Treatment For Teens:

Lotus Behavioral Health features residential treatment for teens that renews and restores wholeness to individuals and their families impacted by substance use and mental health disorders. Our residential drug treatment program is available for male and female adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17. Based on treatment recommendations, our residential treatment for teens programs range from 30 to 90 days. The minimum length of residential treatment depends on the type and extent of the adolescent’s challenges and their willingness to make a change. According to the National Institutes of Health, residential treatment for teens requires an adequate period of time to generate lasting change.

In our residential program, adolescents receive customized treatment that is developed and delivered by expert clinical therapists. We also provide individualized educational services to keep teens on track with their school responsibilities. Our excellent academic program is designed to positively impact their confidence, engagement, and sense of accomplishment—supporting their process of healing and recovery. This integrative residential treatment curriculum consists of a minimum of 24 hours of clinical and activity therapy each week. Clients also attend our virtual classroom daily where they will be able to keep up with their academics or vocational goals. Our comprehensive residential program reestablishes healthy adolescent behavior while setting the stage for a successful transition back into families, homes, schools, and communities.

During residential treatment, active family participation is essential for a good outcome and can greatly benefit even the most severely addicted individuals. The family component aims to educate those closest to the youth about chemical dependency and the practical skills needed to support adolescents in their vision of a better life.

The Lotus Residential Program Offers the following Services:

• Group therapy sessions (7 days a week).
• Individual and family therapy sessions (at least once a week).
• Florida Virtual School for all clients to maintain current status with credits or catch up with the assistance of a teacher in the classroom. Credits from Florida Virtual School are accepted at all Florida schools. This helps reduce possible stigma when teens return to school.
• Community outings and volunteer opportunities.
• Evening Narcotics Anonymous (NA) and Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings.
