They treat mental and behavioral health and substance use challenges. Through a continuum of therapy that includes a therapeutic day program (PHP), intensive outpatient program (IOP), and outpatient care, they guide teens and families into long-lasting healing. Academic support provides collaboration with schools, special education teachers, tutors, and help with applying to college.
Personalized And Empowering Treatment
Diagnostic assessments help guide the unique treatment of each teen. The accredited and professional staff at Centers for Families help ensure each aspect of patients’ needs is met and in a healing and empowering way. Their multidisciplinary staff includes child and adolescent psychiatrist, psychologist, family therapists, nurses, dieticians, and adventure therapists. Holistic therapies work alongside clinical and evidence-based care to give well-rounded treatment. Their Minneapolis location connects teens to activities on the Bde Maka Ska lake, like kayaking. Centers for Families Minneapolis also works closely with advisors from the Trevor Project to provide inclusive, affirming care for LGBTQ+ patients.
