About Key Healthcare

Teen Healing Insights

Key Healthcare is an amazing teen residential treatment program. Our son was struggling with marijuana addiction, serious anxiety, depression, was not listening, and had no motivation. We have tried 2 other teen therapy options, but Key Healthcare is what our son has responded to the best by far. Their teen inpatient program has a really cool and inviting environment, with really great therapists, and the staff were all very friendly, and caring. The family therapy sessions were very valuable to our family as well. My son didn’t feel like he was going to therapy when he was at key healthcare. They provided educational structure for him to get his schoolwork done and he took part in group therapy which he spoke positively about.

Really great therapists and staff at this teen treatment program. Very nice inpatient facility, I highly recommend Key Healthcare for families of teenagers dealing with mental health issues or depression.
key healthcare residential treatment program california reviewer
I highly recommend key healthcare to any family that has a teen struggling. Friend of mine sent their teen to the teen residential program, which drastically helped their son, and family life. We ended up sending our daughter to key healthcare’s iop as well and she got an extremely high level of therapy, which she resonated with. We saw a huge shift in our daughter after she completed their teen rehab.
As a treatment professional, I am so grateful for the team at Key! My students have found the mentoring/coaching services to be so incredibly supportive. The mentors are so good at connecting with students, engaging them in positive healthy activities and steering them towards building healthy skills. The parent coaching adds such a strong element. When combined with inpatient therapy. Thanks to all the team at Key!

Evidence-Based Residential Treatment Center in Gardena, California

Adolescence is a time of firsts. That’s true. But with this time of first comes new emotions, experiences, and responsibilities. And with these new stages (maturity) come challenges, temptations, and pitfalls that test their resolve.

If we talk about the temptations that youth face, it is tremendous in today’s world, where opioids and fentanyl have taken a major share.

Well, we’re not just making claims on our own here.

  • According to CBS News, a teenage girl died, and three other teens were taken to the hospital after they overdosed at a school in Hollywood and a nearby park.
  • The location is about 42 minutes from Gardena.
  • Authorities believe the teens took Percocet pills that were mixed with fentanyl.

Quite devastating. But you see, sometimes, teens can stray from a healthy path despite their best efforts. And the reasons for this are many, including mental health struggles, bullying, peer pressure, easy access to these substances through social media, etc. A helping hand can make all the difference when these challenges pile up.

That’s where our evidence-based residential treatment center steps in. We provide personalized therapy plans for teens and their families during these temptation crises, helping pave the way toward a healthy and promising future. Our aim:

  • Is to target the root cause of these underlying issues.
  • Eradicate the root causes of the problems instead of sweeping them under the rug.
  • And ensure that every teen has the tools, skills, and support they need to thrive despite the obstacles they face.

Gardena Teen Therapists & Counselors

To provide structured substance use or mental health services to your teen we built on proven, evidence-based therapies. With methods like EMDR, DBT, Exposure Therapy, and CBT, our therapists can effectively support teens facing mental health struggles and substance use disorders.

We also understand the importance of having local support before and after residential care. That’s why we’ve created a list of licensed therapists in Gardena. These professionals, holding LCSW, ACSW, and LMFT credentials, are experienced, accessible, and ready to help. With these resources, your teen can always find trusted support close to their homes.

Note: We aren’t affiliated with these therapists. But all of them are licensed by the California Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS), ensuring your teen gets top-notch medical care close to home.

In moments of crisis, having immediate access to the right hotlines can make a difference in your teen’s mental health issues. At Key Healthcare, we specialize in providing long-term residential care for teens. But we also believe that parents should be prepared for every stage of their teen’s mental health and substance abuse journey.

That’s why we’ve compiled this list of emergency hotlines and services in Gardena so that families and parents can have the resources to respond swiftly and effectively. But before you move forward, here are some guidelines on what to do if your teen is in immediate danger:

  • When your teen is caught in the grip of an overdose or a mental health crisis, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. But remember, your calm presence and quick thinking can make a real difference.
  • In times like these, every second counts. Don’t hesitate to call 911 if you suspect an overdose or if the symptoms of their mental health disorders are getting worse. Once you call, the police dispatcher answers your call and will transfer your call to the Fire Department or Paramedics, if required.
  • Your quick action could be the difference between your teen’s life and death.
  • For teens who feel anxious, depressed, or simply need someone who understands their concerns, Teen Line offers a safe, confidential space to connect with trained peer counselors under the supervision of mental health professionals.

Support Group for Gardena Adolescents

Many teens, about 30% to 65%, experience relapse early in their recovery after leaving a residential program. That’s why a strong support system is crucial to keep them focused on sobriety and responsibility. Thankfully, support groups in Gardena provide just that.

These groups help teens learn stress management techniques, build confidence, and find healthy ways to cope with grief. They also offer a chance to connect with peers who understand their struggles, making recovery feel more achievable. To help teens further, we have compiled a list of support groups below. We suggest teens and their parents to check out the support groups and take the benefits they offer.

  • DBSA California offers peer-led support groups and resources to help teens with depression and bipolar disorder.
  • They work to improve mental health policies and fight for better support systems for young people. Here, teens can find a safe space to share their experiences, connect with others, and feel understood.
  • DBSA equips teens with knowledge to manage their mental health and build resilience. Also, work to ensure better access to mental health care and services for teens who need support.

Youth Development Program for Gardena Adolescents

Supporting teens in Gardena through mental health and substance abuse struggles requires more than care; it needs a well-planned approach. That’s why we stay by your teens’ side every step of the way. We do this by boosting their confidence, guiding them through mentorship, and teaching them key skills like communication, problem-solving, social skills, self-advocacy, and daily life skills. We also help teens stand up for themselves and work toward their careers, which allows them to control impulsive actions and take their behavioral responsibility.

However, to make sure they continue improving their condition after our program, we have compiled a list of youth programs in Gardena. These programs help teens apply what they have learned, make smarter choices, and explore new career paths so their progress lasts beyond therapy.

City of Gardena

  • City of Gardena’s After School Program and Youth Day Camps include a Teen Camp for ages 13-17.

Recreational, Reading Programs, and Community Centers for Teens In Gardena, CA

Healing is a journey, and therapy is just one step along the way. True well-being comes from a well-rounded approach, engaging in recreational activities, immersing in reading programs, and building a sense of community in Gardena, all of these help teens to grow and heal.

Gardena Recreation & Human Services Department

Gardena’s Recreation & Human Services Department engages teens in various activities that can build their confidence and make recovery easy. Their After-School Program offers free snacks, games, arts & crafts, and homework help in a safe environment. Youth & teen camps provide exciting school break activities, including sports, team challenges, and opportunities to make new friends. These programs help teens develop leadership skills, stay active, and build lasting friendships.

Gardena Reading Programs

The Gardena Mayme Dear Library is more than just books! It offers many programs for teens, like the Teen Advisory Board and Art Hub. There, teens can enjoy art activities, book clubs, painting workshops, and other creative projects. These programs help them try new things, express themselves, and make friends while growing and learning.

Gardena Community Centers

The Nakaoka Community Center offers many programs for teens, like sports leagues, free training clinics, and chances to volunteer as a coach. Here, teens can play basketball, soccer, baseball, softball, and flag football while learning teamwork. These activities give teens a positive outlet, helping them stay active, build confidence, and support their recovery.

High School Counseling Resources for Gardena Adolescents

Emotional and behavioral struggles can sometimes make it difficult for teens to succeed in their academics. That’s why high school counselors are there to help.

With their training and experience, they work closely with teens to address their challenges while staying in touch with parents, teachers, and peers for continuous feedback.

As their support is valuable after our RTC program, to help you further, we have compiled a list of high schools with their counseling information.

We highly recommend staying engaged with school counseling sessions and activities overseen by their Unified School District to support your teen’s progress.

Find Your Teenager's Fitness Flow in Gardena, CA

Surf therapy is one of the most effective therapies we use in our program. But why do we incorporate surfing therapy? Because the ocean naturally calms the mind, and surfing adds focus and energy.

During our sessions, teens learn to see their urges like waves building, cresting, and fading, just like emotions and cravings. By riding waves, they gain a practical way to manage their emotions without acting impulsively.

This is one of the key skills we develop in your teen for lasting recovery. To continue their progress after our residential care, teens need to stay engaged in this therapy or other physical activities.

This helps them process emotions, maintain mental balance, and reinforce the skills they’ve learned. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of fitness options in Gardena for teens to explore.

Note: (All of these centers are paid).
