Situated on a sprawling ranch in Fort Worth, Clearfork Academy is an outdoor adventure program that serves adolescents who are 13-17 years old. Their faith-based, therapeutic program and master’s-level licensed therapists provide substance use treatment and help for anxiety, depression, and other primary or co-occurring mental health concerns. They provide a full continuum of care tailored to the teenage recovery journey.

Transform with Values-Based Therapy

Clearfork Academy addresses the physical, mental, social, and spiritual struggles of teenage chemical dependency and mental health, placing Christ at the center of recovery. Each module presents both a Clearfork core value—honor, unity, sacrifice, transparency, legacy, and fun. Individual, group, family, art, and music therapy help teens uncover the root causes of addiction, develop coping strategies, and build strong support systems.

Enjoy Comfort & Adventure On Site

Set on 80 acres overlooking Eagle Mountain Lake, the boys campus unfolds across three custom-built homes—each outfitted with every modern convenience a male teen could need—with historic charm in the Base Camp house and panoramic lake views at the Ridge House porch, surrounded by deer, wild turkey, and even the occasional bald eagle. Meanwhile, the girls campus on 15 acres of ranch land has 32 beds set among tranquil communal spaces, inviting teen girls to rest, reflect, and heal in a calm environment.

Stay Connected & Supported as Alumni

Clearfork Academy’s alumni program keeps teens and their families connected long after treatment. Weekly calls, quarterly events, and 24/7 access to support help foster community, celebrate milestones, and provide ongoing guidance. With their commitment to being available, Clearfork ensures alumni stay engaged, supported, and empowered in their lifelong recovery journey.

Testimonial
We want to thank you all for the compassion Clearfork academy has shown our son and our family through the most challenging times as parents. The care our son received while in treatment at Clearfork academy far exceeded our expectations. The most comforting part of this experience was the staff’s compassion in finding the best treatment approach for our son. Clearfork Academy provided the therapy, values and structure our son needed to begin his recovery and jumpstart his spiritual journey. We consider all Clearfork academy’s staff as an extension of our family since they treated us like family throughout our son’s therapy. Even though our son has graduated from Clearfork Academy, we still feel supported through the alumni group. This is not a journey we expected for our teen, but we are forever thankful for Clearfork Academy!
