Teen Residential Treatment for Imperial, California
What to Expect During Our Imperial 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.
- After the initial orientation, we move toward the assessment and pre-admission stage.
- Here, we thoroughly evaluate your teen’s medical history and cultural background. We also 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, including paperwork, finances, and logistics.
- Our Imperial teen residential treatment California program will be tailored to meet your teen’s specific needs, addressing the particular condition they are being treated for, whether mental illness or substance use disorders.
However, during their stay with us, here’s a list of common therapies your teen will participate in.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Teens will have an individual therapy session with a skilled counselor every week. During these individual therapy sessions, they'll be able to analyze their emotions, gain insight into their thoughts and behaviors, and how they can break their negative thinking pattern.
GROUP THERAPY
Group therapy is a core component of our treatment program. During these group therapy sessions, teens can share their experiences and learn from their peers in a safe and supportive environment.
HOLISTIC AND RECREATION THERAPIES
We don't just rely on conventional treatment. We take it a step further by offering a mix of holistic and experiential therapies such as yoga, art therapy, surf therapy, hiking, music therapy, and equine-assisted therapy. These activities are specially designed to help teens manage their stress, find a sense of self, build confidence, and uncover new passions.
NUTRITION AND EXERCISE
We integrate the essentials of nutrition and physical activity into each day. With daily access to 3 nutritional meals, healthy snacks, and exercise resources, we ensure every aspect of a teen's health is nurtured. It's about empowering them to take steps toward lasting wellness.
FAMILY CENTERED TREATMENT
The entire family plays a crucial role in our residential treatment program. Our experienced therapists help families address communication issues between their teens, build healthy boundaries, and learn new ways to cope. These steps are crucial in supporting their teen's long-term recovery.
ACADEMIC SUPPORT
We know how challenging it can be for teens to keep up with academics while they're in our program. That's why, through Mission Academy School, we offer curriculum and credit recovery so that no schoolwork progress is lost. Our caring staff is there to help support your child's studies while they're healing.
Meet the Team
We believe that the effectiveness of the treatment program relies heavily on the bond between the teen and their therapist, rather than solely on the clinical modalities and various therapeutic techniques employed. That is why our staff members are relatable, resourceful and fearless when it comes to finding creative solutions for each client.

Emergency Response/Hotlines Information for Imperial Adolescents
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.

That’s why we’ve compiled this list of emergency hotlines and services in Imperial 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.

We know how important these counselors are for a teen’s recovery after our RTC program. That’s why we’ve put together a list of high schools and their counseling information in Imperial. We encourage teens and their parents to explore the counseling sessions and support available through the Imperial Unified School District (IUSD).

Find Your Teenager's Fitness Flow in Imperial, CA
Sometimes, teens’ recovery is boosted when they spend time in nature. That’s why we include adventure therapy in our sessions. Activities like hiking, kayaking, surfing, and mountain climbing help teens step out of their comfort zones and control their behavior. These adventures build leadership skills, boost self-confidence, ease feelings of hopelessness, and even lead to real solutions for their problems.
But, striving for recovery needs consistent efforts. That’s why teens need to stay active after our program, too. Whether they keep doing the activities they learned with us or try something new like gym workouts, martial arts, or dance, staying active is great for both body and mind, healing their issues. To help out, we’ve compiled a list of resources below so teens can stay fit and healthy.
