Sandstone Care Teen Center at Cascade Canyon provides age-appropriate treatment that helps teens change the trajectory of their lives. For teens struggling with addiction and co-occurring mental health issues, their holistic treatment approach gets to the bottom of what’s hurting a teen’s well-being. They offer residential treatment with small group sizes and a focus on strengthening the family unit. Academic support is also provided to help teens stay on track with coursework.

Improve Values, Habits, and Relationships

Sandstone Care relies on its CLICC Framework—Commitment, Life Skills, Integrity, Connection, Community—to identify areas that need attention for each teen. Through individual and group sessions using scientifically proven therapies, teens are able to recognize their strengths and improve any areas that are holding them back. The goal is to get to the root of problems and have each teen experience a game-changing moment that sets the stage for lasting recovery.

Find Comfort in a Stable Environment

Sandstone Care is situated just outside Colorado Springs, next to Pikes Peak Mountain. Teens stay in a secure lodge with semi-private, comfortable bedrooms and a large deck with beautiful views. With a structured sleep schedule and chef-prepared meals, teens are ready to engage at their best during therapy and activities.

Keep Moving Forward

After residential treatment, Sandstone Care’s dedicated aftercare team ensures teens stay supported with ongoing resources and connections. Their discharge planners offer personalized aftercare planning, including seamless transitions into day treatment or intensive outpatient programs. These step-down options provide continued behavioral health support without the hassle of starting over elsewhere—helping clients maintain momentum and stability.

Testimonial
This place has been wonderful to work with. The clients I have had go through this program have had great experiences and I will continue to recommend families to use this program. Not only is the clinical work great, the campus is breathtakingly beautiful. Sandstone Care is a rock solid program, provides clear communication to families, and gives teens an empathetic and healing environment to begin their recovery journey.

Involve the Entire Family
Sandstone Care requires family involvement in each teen’s recovery journey. Individual family therapy sessions work to strengthen the family bond and address issues contributing to the teen’s struggles. They also offer multi-family group therapy sessions, in which multiple families whose teens are in treatment find support with one another.
Heal Through Fun and Exploration
Heal Through Fun and Exploration
While individual therapy helps teens confront their problems, research shows that getting up and moving speeds up the healing process. Sandstone Care includes various experiential therapies such as art and music therapy, yoga, equine therapy, and hiking. These experiences supplement traditional treatment methods to help teens become their happiest, healthiest selves.
Stay on Top of Academics
