Adolescent Student Treatment for Alcohol or Drug Abuse

Our adolescent program is tailored to meet the unique needs of high school students grappling with substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders such as anxiety, depression, and stress. Our flexible Teen Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) accommodates students' school schedules, minimizing disruption to their academic pursuits while receiving essential care.


Group therapy is typically the cornerstone of our approach in both Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) and our more moderate outpatient programs. Family therapy is offered both as a standalone service and integrated into our adolescent IOP program. We recognize the importance of family involvement in the recovery process and strive to create a supportive environment that fosters healing and growth.


Upon initiating care, and assuming the student provides required written releases, we maintain open lines of communication with referring schools and guidance counselors, providing updates on the student's progress as appropriate. Our collaborative approach extends to tailoring the student's care program to align with their school schedule, ensuring minimal disruption to their academic commitments.

Sameem Expertise in the Schools - A Collaborative Approach

Additionally, we actively engage with school guidance offices through regular presentations to keep them informed of the latest developments in our practice. By staying connected with schools and sharing valuable insights, we empower guidance counselors with the knowledge and resources needed to support students effectively.


Through our longstanding partnership with local schools and commitment to excellence in adolescent care, we stand ready to support students in their journey towards recovery and overall well-being. Contact us today to learn more about how we can collaborate to support the students in your school community.
