Preventing Addiction:
The Importance of Early Intervention

Teens who abuse substances at an early age are at a higher risk of falling into the cycle of addiction that can follow them into adulthood. It’s important to understand that there is a difference between substance abuse and addiction. Substance abuse is defined as the use of illicit substances or the misuse of medication.

Addiction, on the other hand, is a complex disease of the brain that impacts the reward center, brain structure, and functionality. It impairs several areas of one’s life, including school, relationships, mental health, physical health, and long-term success. Not all teens who abuse drugs and alcohol will develop an addiction. However, it significantly increases the chances.

Mental Health & Substance Abuse Evaluation

We understand that teenage addiction is often driven by underlying mental health problems and trauma. When your teen first arrives for treatment, they will be given a comprehensive substance abuse evaluation and mental health assessment to identify what treatment is most appropriate for their needs.

Family-Focused Care

Lotus Behavioral Health recognizes the importance of family in the recovery journey for teens. We encourage parents to stay involved in their teen's treatment process for an increased success rate. We offer family therapy to resolve conflict, form better connections, and create a recovery-supportive environment for the teen to return to.

Evidence-Based Therapies

During treatment, your teen will participate in intensive individual and group therapies such as CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing. Our licensed clinicians will help teens break negative thinking patterns that drive their substance use. Clients set treatment goals and develop positive coping strategies.

Relapse Prevention Planning

Throughout treatment, we will focus on relapse prevention planning by helping teens build a strong support system in their community. This may include involving family or friends in the recovery process, ensuring teens meet academic requirements with educational support, connecting them to a peer recovery network, and aiding the family in attaining aftercare and follow-up services.

Academic Program

Lotus Behavioral Health holds both treatment and academics as equally important. We understand many teens who enter treatment fall behind in school, creating extra challenges when they transition back to their community. Teens in our program spend time in the classroom each day while continuing to make progress in their recovery.
