Riverwoods Behavioral Health System offers outstanding inpatient services for youths aged 10-17 dealing with substance-related issues and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, conduct problems, and PTSD. We design customized treatment approaches to suit individual requirements. While in our program, young patients can participate in various forms of therapy, such as personal sessions, family involvement, collective discussions, and practical experiences. Facilitated by therapists with advanced degrees, these sessions take place weekly, though group activities happen daily. Common topics in group settings include techniques for coping, creative activities, resisting peer dynamics, enhancing social capabilities, and developing relationships. Our approach features a points-based reward mechanism to promote positive behaviors. We recognize the sensitivity of this age and focus on delivering care that is appropriately tailored to their growth.
Inpatient Programs for Adolescents
Riverwoods Behavioral Health System delivers high-quality inpatient support for teens and pre-teens aged 10-17 experiencing difficulties with addictions and emotional health issues, like anxiety, depression, conduct challenges, and PTSD. We create bespoke treatment strategies to fit each individual's situation. During the program, participants can join multiple therapy types, including private sessions, family-oriented counseling, team-based activities, and engaging methods. Led by professionals with master's qualifications, these occur weekly, except for daily group sessions. Group topics might involve stress management tools, artistic exploration, navigating peer effects, improving interaction skills, and relationship building. We use a reward-oriented system to encourage healthy choices through earned points. We appreciate the influential period of youth and ensure our care is suited to their developmental needs.
