Get Real Help and Healing for Teens
Adolescence is a time of change, pressure, and vulnerability; and for many teens, it can feel overwhelming. Erlanger helps adolescents find stability and hope for whatever unique emotional and social challenges they face. Depending on their needs, their care plan may include basic medical care, daily group therapy, elements of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and family therapy.
Find Support for both Mental Health and Addiction
Struggling with both mental health and addiction can feel like fighting a battle on two fronts—but clients don’t need to do it alone. Erlanger’s dual diagnosis program treats both conditions together, not separately. Because healing only one piece of the puzzle leaves clients vulnerable to relapse and continued pain, they help uncover the root causes and build a future of lasting recovery.
Receive Help for Life’s Hardest Struggles
When mental illness feels isolating, Erlanger Behavioral Health offers a place of expertise and hope. They specialize in treating severe and complex mental health conditions, including schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. For those also battling substance use, they provide treatment that addresses both at the same time because healing shouldn’t have to happen in pieces.
Discover the Power of Age-Appropriate Care
Healing looks different at every stage of life—that’s why Erlanger offers age-specific treatment for adolescents, adults, and older adults so that their care resonates with their experiences, challenges, and emotional needs. Whether a teen struggles with anxiety in a world full of social pressures, or an adult faces the weight of trauma or mental health struggles, their separate units and approaches create a focused space to recover.
