Adolescent Outpatient Services
Teens will enter into lOP or an outpatient group based on their initial assessment. Teens are evaluated with a primary caregiver present to engage the family in the patients’ treatment and assist in collecting important information.
LENGTH AND STYLE OF TREATMENT
- Adolescent outpatient programs are typically based on an eight week module. Each week, the group will go over a new skill and stay with that skills for one week. Monday will be psycho-ed/ introduction to the skill and then the rest of the week will reinforce and process the new skills, tracking the teens use of each skill during the week.
- When the teens have completed a minimum of 8 weeks and passed any substance use tests, they may petition to step down (completing the form with the skills used) and discuss what they’ve learned in group.
