Key Healthcare
Overview
Trauma-informed residential mental health and substance use care for teens with family therapy, academic guidance, and life skills education. Adolescents ages 13 to 17 stay in an upscale, home-like setting and receive 24/7 support. Stays usually last between 45 to 60 days, but can be adjusted based on individual needs and progress. The program is designed to help teens cope with issues like complex trauma, emotional dysregulation, attachment wounds, or self-harm. Families receive frequent updates and hands-on guidance. Evidence-based therapies are combined with surfing, hiking, and music therapy. Affirming clinicians provide counseling for LGBTQIA+ teens. Key Healthcare accepts private insurance and self-pay.

Residential Treatment Designed for Teens
The program is engineered to fit teens’ age-specific and developmental needs. Evidence-based therapies, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), are adapted specially for the adolescent life stage. Clients recover alongside peers who can share their life experiences, allowing for mutual healing and support. Both mental health concerns and substance use can be addressed at the same time, as well as self esteem issues, social anxiety, and family difficulties.
Continuous Academic Support
Care staff work to ensure that teens don’t fall behind in school while receiving the care they need. While in residential treatment, teens receive instruction through Mission Academy School’s teachers and tutors. Lessons are coordinated with teens’ home schools and take personal education goals into account. Families are kept continuously updated to make sure that all are held accountable and teens stay on the right track.
Structured Daily Routines
Teens participate in a regular, predictable daily schedule, so they can get used to building healthy routines and learning accountability. Peers eat meals together and participate in group therapy, life skills education, and reflection sessions. Medication management and regular check-ins with a psychiatrist are available for those who need them, depending on individual treatment plans.
Experiential and Outdoor Therapies
For teens who could benefit from creativity, movement, and outdoor experiences, the program offers surf therapy, hiking, and recreational therapy. Art and music therapy are also available. All of these approaches complement traditional therapies and are designed to help teens manage stress, build confidence, and develop greater emotional regulation.
Focus on Family Participation
Key Healthcare emphasizes family involvement and active communication with parents and guardians as teens progress through treatments. This includes clinical updates on a consistent basis. Family therapy is a key part of treatment. Both parents and siblings can participate in education sessions on topics including communication, building trust, and setting healthy boundaries.

Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.
Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:
- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.
- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.
- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.
- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.
Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.
How we evaluate treatment facilities
These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.
Important disclaimer
We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
