What to Expect During Our San Marcos Teen Residential Treatment Program

As a parent, knowing what to expect during a teen residential treatment program can help ease your apprehension and make it easier to support your teen through the same feelings. But how?

  • It all starts with us providing you with clear details about the program, treatment philosophies, and admission process.
  • From initial orientation, we move toward the assessment and pre-admission stage.
  • This is where we thoroughly evaluate your teen’s medical history and cultural background and conduct psychological tests to understand their mental health and behavior.
  • As a parent, you are a key part of this process, sharing insights about your teen’s struggles.
  • The results of this assessment will help us create the best treatment plan for your teen.
  • Once your teen is accepted, the admission process begins. Here, we will guide you through all the steps—paperwork, finances, and logistics.
  • Our San Marcos teen residential treatment program will be customized based on the teen’s specific needs, the condition they’re treated for (mental illness or substance use), and how often or intensely symptoms appear.

However, during their stay with us, here’s a list of common therapies your teen will participate in.
