Mission Prep Teen Treatment

Mission Prep provides structure, treatment, and hope for adolescents ages 12 to 17, supporting sustainable change and giving families the fresh start they need. Mission Prep's Via De La Reina home in Bonsall offers care for female and female-identifying teens struggling with anxiety, depression, and trauma. Built around individual therapy, family involvement, and experiential care, the 6-bed residence keeps groups intimate while creating a genuine sense of community.

Build Skills through Weekly Therapy

Each week brings two individual therapy sessions, one family session, and two clinical mentoring sessions, using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to build coping skills. Licensed clinicians integrate Rock to Recovery music therapy, yoga, gardening groups, and nutrition education to round out clinical care. Sessions target anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders through a steady, predictable rhythm.

Settle into Active Daily Life

The 6-bed home offers double-occupancy and single-occupancy rooms, plus private therapy rooms, shared lounges, and a dedicated study area, along with beautiful views and a pool. A chef prepares daily meals, while staff supervise personal phone and laptop use. Teens participate in biweekly surf therapy, monthly skateboarding, and one to two weekly outings of their choice, from the beach to go-karting.

Prepare for Life after Treatment

A biweekly family program, a Wednesday family support group, and weekly individual family therapy sessions keep parents and guardians actively involved throughout treatment, equipping them to support their teen long after returning home. Clinicians design tailored discharge plans around each resident's specific diagnosis and home environment, establishing community referrals and follow-up counseling well before residential care fully ends.
