Designed for Teens and Their Development Needs

Teens in crisis require more than scaled-down adult treatment; they need developmentally tuned care that recognizes emotional volatility, identity formation, and family dynamics. Hillcrest integrates schooling, life skills, and peer-appropriate routines into a therapeutic structure that supports both stability and growing independence.

Healing Through Outdoor and Creative Activities

In addition to talk therapy, teens participate in equine therapy, outdoor therapy, creative and expressive arts like improve and creative writing, and movement-based modalities that help them process emotions somatically, not just cognitively. These experiences are designed to meet adolescents where they are—often guarded, overstimulated, or disconnected—and help them build trust, emotional awareness, and regulation through action and interaction.

Integrated Academic Support for Continuity and Confidence

Education is embedded into treatment, with on-site instruction, GED prep, and coordination with home schools to ensure teens don’t fall behind. Led by credentialed educators and therapeutic staff, the program meets academic needs while supporting mental health goals. For teens who’ve struggled with school refusal or performance anxiety, this continuity restores both structure and self-confidence.

Private, Home Setting with Upscale Accommodations

The space provides the comfort and convenience of luxury amenities, helping teens feel safe enough to let down their guard. Plentiful indoor and outdoor recreation spaces, as well as an on-site chef attentive to dietary needs, help teens have a comfortable, positive experience that also benefits their mental health.

What Patients and Families Say

Hillcrest is widely described as compassionate, effective, and life-saving. Families frequently mention improved relationships, reduced anxiety and depression, and a smoother transition home. One standout theme is the quality of aftercare planning and education for parents—a critical but often overlooked part of adolescent recovery. One negative review cited a billing issue related to coordination with an external provider, highlighting the importance of clear communication during intake. Still, such complaints are rare and outweighed by consistently strong feedback about care and outcomes.
