Dual-Diagnosis Treatment
Dual-Diagnosis Treatment
Muir Wood Teen Treatment treats co-occurring conditions, including addiction and mental health conditions. They treat phobias and personality disorders, disordered eating that is under control, trauma, and more with an integrated approach. Their psychiatrists use psychological evaluations to diagnose and create customized treatment plans for one or multiple conditions.
Substance Use Treatment
Substance Use Treatment
Treatment may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), where teens work closely with their primary therapist to develop specific tools they can use to counter symptoms of anxiety or depression, or any sudden urge to use substances. Teens acquire effective coping tools, learning how to deal with their mental health issues and their past substance use. These skills can help stabilize their transition to adult life and prevent relapse in the future.
Academic Support
Academic Support
Muir Wood Teen offers academic support for teens in grades 7-12. The program is accredited by the Western Assoc. of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and supports the curriculum offered at the teens’ home school. The academic staff help teens with their education 3+ hours a day in a modern classroom environment.

Family System Recovery
