About Never Alone - Adolescent Addiction Treatment Center
Never Alone is a residential treatment center in the Hudson Valley specializing in adolescent alcohol and substance addiction. They offer an extensive array of scientifically-backed treatment options designed to cater to the unique needs of adolescents. Each teen benefits from treatment tailored to their physical, emotional, and mental wellness. From initial therapy sessions to follow-up care plans, they provide 24-hour care and guidance that allows teens to attain recovery. Parents receive phone calls once a week about their child’s progress.
Gain Powerful Tools for Healing & Personal Growth
Never Alone’s holistic approach sees teenagers as whole beings, considering their physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects. They incorporate various therapeutic modalities into their programs including individual counseling, group therapy, family therapy, educational workshops, recreational activities, and more. Activity, art, and music therapies offer teens alternative ways to communicate and express themselves beyond traditional talk therapy.
Treat the Underlying Issues of Addiction
Never Alone’s program goes beyond addiction recovery, recognizing the significance of addressing underlying issues such as trauma, mental health disorders, or family dynamics. Through individual and family therapy sessions, they treat the root causes of addiction rather than just its symptoms. This empowers teens to develop healthy coping mechanisms and build a solid foundation for a brighter future.
Thrive in a Structured, Nurturing Environment
Never Alone’s offers a secure and comforting space where young people can recover and flourish. The homelike center is tucked away in a forested landscape near the Catskills with plenty of possibilities for outdoor activities. Clients share a room with one roommate of the same sex, and there are separate residential buildings for boys and girls. Clients can expect three delicious and nutritious meals a day prepared by a chef. The daily schedule includes schooling, therapy, life skills, art therapy, individualized treatment, and plenty of time for structured recreational activities.

Family therapy addresses group dynamics within a family system, with a focus on improving communication and interrupting unhealthy relationship patterns.
Life Skills
Teaching life skills like cooking, cleaning, clear communication, and even basic math provides a strong foundation for continued recovery.

This approach is based on idea that motivation to change comes from within. Providers use a conversational framework that may help you commit to recovery.
Music Therapy
Singing, performing, and even listening to music can be therapeutic. Music therapy sessions are facilitated by certified counselors.
