About Blume Behavioral Health - Boys Facility
In the coastal city of Torrance, California, this residential treatment center offers hope for teen boys ages 12-17 struggling with emotional, behavioral, or addiction challenges. With a commitment to real change, Blume provides gender-specific care in a close-knit 6-bed setting, which allows for individualized attention. In addition to a strong therapeutic program, they also offer mentorship, academic instruction, and they encourage parental involvement to round out their holistic treatment.
Find Meaningful Change beyond Traditional Therapy
Because every young mind is unique, the team of adolescent psychiatrists and psychologists work closely with teens and their families to provide top-tier clinical care with truly individualized support and attention for each client. While they rotate through a foundation of proven-effective therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), they tailor them and other holistic therapies to the client’s main concerns. More tactile and creative therapies are also used— like sand tray, equine, play, and adventure therapy. The team believes that meaningful change can happen when reconnecting with life’s fun and exciting moments.
Get Guidance from Mentors Who’ve Been There
The mentorship program is a cornerstone of the program at Blume. They pair each teen with a carefully selected mentor who has walked a similar path. This relationship can be a game changer to bring guidance and inspiration on the healing journey. Having a trusted relationship with a mentor helps teens gain confidence and develop a positive outlook on their future, while also learning conflict resolution strategies and developing essential life skills.
Explore Coastline to City
In the vibrant city of Torrance, the tight-knit 6-bed facility provides the perfect balance of privacy and community. With semi-private rooms, each teen boy has space to reflect and recharge. Beyond the comfortable amenities, the facility’s proximity to the coastline allows for outings and therapies that take advantage of both natural and urban beauty.

Discover the Power of a Boy's-Only Treatment Environment
Blume understands that boys face unique pressures and challenges when it comes to mental health. Their residential program creates a safe space for teen boys to explore their emotions and address the societal pressures and stigmas that often prevent boys from seeking help. They are able to connect with similar-aged peers and build a sense of brotherhood, showing them the impact of positive friendship on mental health.
Uncover the Rewards of a Focused Reset
At Blume, boys can immerse in a therapeutic community, free from distractions, where they can uncover the core issues affecting their lives through intensive therapy. By participating in life-altering individual and group therapy sessions they gain a better understanding of their strengths and areas that need growth. These rewards not only impact the present, but set them up for success in the future.
Don't Let Treatment Disrupt Education
Blume recognizes the diversity in learning styles and academic needs for students at different grade levels. Their program collaborates closely with each teen’s home school to support a seamless transition and maintain academic progress. For those not currently enrolled, they partner with an academic team to provide third-party educational services, offering continuity and the option to continue schooling at home if preferred. The goal is to empower teens to stay engaged with their education while prioritizing their overall well-being.
