The Top Florida Residential Treatment Centers for Teens

MyTroubledTeen presents parents of troubled teens with the top Florida Residential Treatment Centers. Residential Treatment Centers (RTC's) are designed to help struggling teens deal with and overcome substance abuse, addiction, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, academic failure, sexual promiscuity, and many other mental and emotional health issues related to struggling adolescents.

Many of the Florida residential treatment centers we represent are confused with therapeutic boarding schools. There is a huge difference between these two treatment programs. Essentially, the main difference between a residential treatment program and a therapeutic boarding school is the level of psychological and psychiatric care and the attention given toward academic pursuits.

RTC's typically offer both therapeutic treatment and academic services, but the best RTC's also provide intensive and long-term therapeutic treatment for substance abuse, addiction, personality and mental disorders, depression, eating disorders, and many other mental health issues. Lastly, the top RTC's provide life and social skills therapy required to restore a severely troubled teenager back to a life of peace, prosperity, and sobriety.

When adolescents are admitted to a Residential Treatment Center they receive an individualized treatment and therapy plan specifically tailored to their unique emotional and mental health needs. The treatment plan takes into account everything about the child's individual situation. The purpose of the individual treatment plan is to ensure the child is given therapeutic care that gives them the best chance at full and permanent recovery.

Parents needing assistance with a troubled teen can get the personal and professional assistance from our admissions counselors. Our admissions professionals coach parents through the process of making the right RTC for choice for their child and family. Please take the first step and get help now by calling 800-845-1342.

Teen Residential Treatment Centers Focus on All Mental Health-related Issues

The Residential Treatment Centers that we represent focus on overcoming moderate to severe emotional and mental health issues that are preventing struggling teens from growing mentally and emotionally.

For example, issues such as depression, anxiety, addiction, substance abuse, personality disorders, eating disorders, and severe behavioral problems will prevent any teen from growing in all aspects of their life. Until these issues are dealt with (overcome), a teen literally cannot grow, prosper, thrive, or advance. Consequently, their immediate and long term future is bleak.

Residential treatment is very different from other types of therapeutic intervention. First, RTC's are residential-based programs where the child lives in the program for an extended period of time (ranging between 90-days to 18 months).

Residential treatment programs are more comprehensive and holistic when compared to less restrictive therapeutic interventions. RTC's are required to evaluate each child and provide a comprehensive individualized treatment plan within the first 30-days of admission. This individual treatment plan is specifically tailored to meet the unique mental health issue of each child and used as the therapeutic "path" to emotional health (peace and prosperity).

Nature Has Proven to Offer Amazing Mental Health Benefits

Remember playing outside until mom called you in for dinner? Keep in mind, when it comes to teenagers RTC's located in rural regions provide myriad intangible mental health benefits that can't be matched in suburbia. For example, treatment centers situated on a ranch in the middle of the mountains and surrounded by a majestic forest offer a unique and unmatched therapeutic value. The serenity of the mountains has proven to add an immeasurable advantage, especially when enhanced with animal therapy and outdoor adventure.

Programs offered by MyTroubledTeen are tailored specifically toward adolescents with special needs. In many cases, teens that have not responded to traditional suburban treatment venues have found the help they needed while attending a rural program. The truth is that RTC's located in majestic mountains made all the difference. Meaning, the therapeutic treatment offered by rural programs are teen-friendly because they are enhanced by their location.

If you are ready to see positive change your teenager's life, or have specific questions about residential treatment centers (suburban or rural), please call us. Our family advocates are on standby ready to serve, and always available to speak with parents of troubled teens. Call 800-845-1342 today!
