- 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.

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.

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.

La Puente Teen Therapist & Counselors
One integrative approach our therapist uses during the program is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. This therapy is highly effective in helping teens heal from PTSD, trauma, and other mental health issues.
During the EMDR sessions, teens access their traumatic memories in a safe, guided way. Through eye movements and precise instructions, they reprocess those painful events. This process helps repair mental wounds, making the memories less overwhelming. Teens no longer feel trapped by the past and can manage their related feelings more confidently.
However, life after residential care often comes with its own set of challenges, from resurfaced trauma to new stressors. And to support teens during this transition, we’ve compiled a list of therapists (with LCSW credentials) in La Puente who employ EMDR and other therapies in their sessions. This continued support offers teens a structured approach to processing their emotions, helping them tap into their inner resilience.
