Mission Prep Teen Treatment

Residential Care for High-Acuity Teen Mental Health

Mission Prep Teen Treatment offers a structured residential program for adolescent girls, young women, and female-identifying teens experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, self-harm, or behavioral challenges. The program specializes in supporting teens with moderate to high-acuity needs in a calm, home-like setting. Staff provide continuous care and supervision, ensuring emotional safety and clinical stability throughout treatment.

Blending Evidence-Based Therapy with Experiential Healing

Care combines evidence-based approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), with experiential and movement-based therapies. Teens participate in equine therapy, gardening, art and music sessions, and mindfulness practices that help build emotional regulation and resilience. Community outings, visits with therapy animals, and recreational activities like roller skating and cooking classes encourage social growth and confidence.

A Home-Like Setting Designed for Comfort and Growth

Mission Prep’s tranquil residence offers shared and private spaces that promote reflection and connection. Chef-prepared meals, open green areas, and outdoor seating create a restorative environment that feels welcoming rather than clinical. Structured daily routines, recreational time, and nutritious meals reinforce stability and self-care habits, helping teens develop healthy rhythms that carry into life after treatment.

Family Connection and Practical Life Skills

Family participation is central to the healing process. Regular on-site visits and therapy sessions help parents and caregivers rebuild communication and trust, while gaining tools for continued care at home. Teens also participate in skill-building workshops, including financial literacy, digital balance, and household responsibilities, which foster independence and prepare them for everyday life beyond residential care.

Preparing for Continued Success After Treatment

Discharge planning begins early in the treatment process to ensure a smooth transition from residential care. The clinical team coordinates ongoing therapy, academic support, and outpatient services tailored to each teen’s needs. By blending therapeutic progress with life skills and family connection, Mission Prep helps teens and their families strengthen emotional wellness, confidence, and long-term stability.
