INSURANCES WE ACCEPT

best teen treatment

Welcome to Key Healthcare. Where recovery begins and transformation happens.

At Key Healthcare, we believe every teen deserves a chance to heal and grow. Founded in 2015 by a team inspired by their own treatment experiences, we set out with one goal: to change the story for teens and families affected by addiction and mental health issues.

We offer a full spectrum of care, including residential treatment, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, transitional living, and aftercare for mental health and addiction. Each treatment program is designed to meet teens where they are, with a focus on long-term stability and emotional growth.

Our expert team uses evidence-based therapies that go beyond treating symptoms. Our approach helps teens rebuild their confidence, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with a sense of purpose. At Key Healthcare, recovery is only the beginning. We are here to support real change that lasts.

past. present. future.

Healing the present begins with understanding the past. At Key Healthcare, our comprehensive treatment approach addresses the full scope of a teen’s experience past, present, and future.

Our clinical process is straightforward and built on three core steps.

step 1: PAST

We help teens and families understand past traumas and struggles. This includes processing them, gaining clarity, accepting them, and coming to terms with their impact.

step 2: PRESENT

Once the past is addressed, we turn to the present. Together, we work on the challenges teens are facing right now and equip them with the tools to manage them.

step 3: FUTURE

With clarity and strength gained from addressing the past and present, we guide teens toward the future helping them build resilience, motivation, and inspiration for lasting growth.

The foundation of adolescent healing starts with confronting past trauma. Unresolved trauma disrupts emotional development, impairs relationships, affects academic performance, and increases the risk of long-term mental and physical health issues. Research shows that adolescents with unprocessed trauma are more likely to develop depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, and family dysfunction. Our experience at Key Healthcare also shows that when past trauma is not addressed, teens often remain stuck in patterns of distress, unable to move forward in their healing.

At Key Healthcare we use a three-part clinical process that addresses the full scope of a teen’s journey. First, we help teens and families process past traumas and struggles with evidence-based trauma-informed therapies. Second, we focus on present challenges, teaching skills to regulate emotions, strengthen relationships, and improve daily functioning. Finally, with clarity and stability in place, we guide teens toward building resilience, motivation, and inspiration for the future.

Our clinical approach combines individual therapy, group therapy, family work, and experiential programming. We use proven modalities such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, and family systems therapy to ensure treatment is comprehensive and effective. Clinical research shows that trauma-informed interventions improve emotional regulation, strengthen family functioning, and support long-term recovery. Our experience confirms this: when teens confront the past, develop tools for the present, and focus on the future, they gain the resilience needed to thrive well into adulthood.

Teen Mental Health

Teens and young adults are particularly susceptible to mental health issues due to the physical and emotional changes they experience. Luckily, with the right treatment, teen mental health problems can be effectively managed.

Anxiety

When the feeling of anxiety is crippling and interfering with day-to-day activities, or if it doesn’t go away with time, then it could mean your child is suffering from an anxiety disorder.

Depression

Adolescent depression can deeply affect a teen’s mood, behavior, and daily life. Our specialized teen treatment program offers a variety of individual, family, and group therapies in a supportive environment. At Key Healthcare, our goal is to help teenagers understand their emotions and build coping skills under the guidance of licensed mental health professionals.

Trauma & PTSD

Teen trauma can deeply impact emotional well-being, relationships, and daily life. Our teen trauma and PTSD treatment program provides a safe, structured environment where adolescents can process their experiences and build healthy coping skills.

LGBTQ Counseling for Mental Health

At Key Healthcare, our LGBTQ program provides a safe, affirming space where adolescents can come to terms with their sexual orientation, explore their gender identity, learn from previous experiences, build resilience, and receive the compassionate mental health care they deserve. Our non-judgmental mental health professionals work hard to provide the affirming support these teenagers need.

Low Self Esteem

At Key Healthcare, we understand both how difficult it can be for both teens and parents to navigate these challenges and just how important it for parents to be aware of the signs of low self-esteem and talk to their teens. That’s why our specialized treatment programs are designed to help adolescents build lasting confidence, develop a healthy self-esteem, better thought patterns, and discover their true strengths.

Suicidal Ideation

Teen suicide is a growing concern, often linked to underlying mental health struggles such as depression, trauma, or anxiety. We provide specialized care and evidence-based prevention programs designed to help teens find hope and rebuild a sense of purpose.
