Treatment Philosophy
The best treatment requires not only current, research-based therapies,
but an informed vision for each unique teen girl. Our clinicians' first job, then, is to get to know your

With the benefit of a trusting relationship, however, clinically sophisticated therapies can be customized
to meet the individual's needs and can change her life!
In addition to creating a therapeutic milieu that promotes growth in the course of daily life, we also
provide scheduled therapy that includes:
- Weekly individual therapy sessions
