Sandstone Care Alexandria

Age-Specific Care for Teens and Young Adults

This outpatient facility is designed specifically for adolescents (ages 13–17) and young adults (ages 18–30). With small group sizes, evidence-based therapies, and trauma-informed counseling, the program creates a safe space where clients can connect with peers their own age while receiving tailored clinical support. This focus on age-specific care helps young people feel understood and supported as they begin their recovery journey.

Empowering Young People for Life Beyond Treatment

Teens can stay on track with schoolwork through guidance from academic advisors, while young adults can explore career paths and receive coaching on job readiness. Life skills workshops and vocational training help clients build confidence and prepare for independence. By blending therapeutic care with practical support, the center ensures young people are equipped for long-term success outside of treatment.

Family Involvement That Develops Lasting Recovery

Parents and loved ones are invited into the process through biweekly individual family therapy and weekly multi-family groups. These sessions focus on building healthy communication, setting boundaries, and strengthening relationships. Families not only learn how to better support their loved one, but also how to heal together as a unit. This collaborative approach reinforces treatment progress and creates a supportive home environment for lasting recovery.

Building Structure and Commitment for Life After Treatment

Alumni are welcomed into a strong peer community that offers regular events, support groups, and access to recovery coaches. Relapse prevention planning and access to community resources help clients maintain stability and continue building on the skills developed in treatment. This commitment to ongoing support ensures that teens and young adults leave treatment with both a plan and a community to sustain their progress.
