About Newport Academy Washington State
Founded in 1996, Gray Wolf Ranch recently joined the Newport Academy family and is an evidence-based mental health treatment facility for young men. Gray Wolf Ranch has treated more than 1,500 young men with substance use disorder and co-occurring mental health disorders. Here, they combine clinical treatment, wilderness therapy, experiential programming, and academic instruction. Their women’s home in Kirkland, WA offers similar programming. Newport offers a highly structured residential program, with personalized treatment plans based on both gender and the specific issues patients face—whether that’s trauma, gaming or tech addiction, eating disorders, substance use, or other mental health issues. This nurturing experience creates a space for compassion, trust, and camaraderie among residents.
Patients begin treatment with an assessment to properly gauge their needs and treatment requirements. From there, a personalized care team that includes counselors, nurses, a psychiatrist, and dietician continues to meet the needs of each teen. Newport Academy uses attachment-based family therapy (ABFT) to help rebuild familial relationships. Individual and group therapy connect patients to themselves and their peers, building a support network that Newport also extends to families.
Newport Academy creates individualized treatment plans that include equine therapy, music and art, yoga, meditation, adventure therapy, and a host of evidence-based therapies. Their locations in Washington State keep teens close to nature, enhancing their care experience and privacy. Newport Academy Washington State values incorporating experiential therapies into their clients' schedules. Some adventure therapies include hiking, rock climbing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, exploring natural caves, surfing, and enjoying local ropes courses. Other holistic therapies offered at Newport Academy include yoga, meditation, music therapy, fitness, and art therapy.
Newport Academy keeps teens on track with their school, offering tutoring and individualized schooling programs. On-site teachers incorporate academic progress with therapeutic care, giving teens a safe space to learn and heal. Newport Academy in Washington State is accredited by The Joint Commission and covered by most private insurance providers.

Provider's Policy:We work with most major insurance companies, including both In-Network and out-of-network payers, to optimize access to care for families and teens affected by addiction.
Newport Academy’s Washington locations house teens in gender-specific homes. They treat each teen with the individualized care they need and deserve–no two teens are alike, and neither is their treatment. Newport’s team of professionals work to create custom care, using evidence-based methods with proven results and trackable, successful outcomes. No two families are alike either, making their care plan just as personal.
Teens continue school in treatment, led by Newport Academy ’s accredited teachers. Just like their therapeutic care, teens receive an individualized academic plan, with 1-1 tutoring and peer support. This all begins in the same supportive and safe environment of treatment, with all academics on site and led by Newport’s teaching staff. Parents meet with teachers in parent-teacher meetings, allowing for connections and engagement between everyone involved.
Newport Academy extends healing to the whole family. Master-level therapists lead attachment-based family therapy to help teens and their parents heal strained relationships and make healthy ones. Educational sessions support parents in learning more about addiction and mental health, helping them become the supportive allies they strive to be. Together, teens and their families learn how to move forward with hope and cope with challenges as they come.
Newport Academy aims to help teens see that recovery can involve fun, using adventure therapy and experiential care. Teens stay in gender-specific homes at Newport Academy’s Washington State locations. Their boys’ cabin and home for girls in Kirkland each offer experiential therapies. Seasonal fun can include hiking, skiing, and exploring the nature around each home.
