Teen CBT Treatment Program
Each of our treatment programs provides teens with access to CBT and other evidence-based mental health therapies. Teens participate in CBT daily, weekly, or bi-weekly, depending on their level of care. According to the National Institute of Health, CBT has a success rate of 60% in helping those in recovery prevent relapse and maintain long-term sobriety.

What is CBT Therapy?
CBT is an evidence-based treatment for substance abuse and several mental health disorders, including depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. It helps teens in recovery restructure negative thought patterns, set treatment goals, and build healthy coping skills. It is a goal-oriented, short-term treatment that blends cognitive therapy (exploring thoughts) with behavioral therapy (modifying actions).
During CBT sessions, teens learn how their thoughts influence their mood and behavior. They also explore stressors that drive their substance abuse and build healthy coping strategies to improve their mental health. These include cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, journaling, deep breathing, and progressive muscle relaxation.

CBT Treatment FAQs
Do you provide a mental health assessment?
When your teen first arrives for treatment, whether it be inpatient or intensive outpatient, we will conduct a substance abuse assessment and mental health evaluation. Part of this includes reviewing their psychiatric history to understand their mental health diagnosis better and what medications they have been prescribed in the past.
How often does my teen attend CBT sessions?
Your teen will attend CBT sessions at least weekly, or bi-weekly.
Can my teen receive medication during CBT treatment?
Yes. While therapists do not prescribe medication, many teens attend CBT while also participating in medication appointments with a licensed psychiatric provider. A combination of medication and therapy is shown to have highly successful treatment outcomes for teens in recovery.
Do you accept insurance for CBT?
Yes, we accept most major insurance providers, including Cigna, Aetna, BlueCross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, Lucet, Optum, Tricare, Humana, and Bright Healthcare. Speak with one of our admissions members to verify insurance and find the best treatment plan for your teen.
