Adolescent Programs & Family Services
Inpatient, Outpatient, and Family Involvement
He’s moody and withdrawn. She’s running with the wrong crowd.
His grades have taken a nose-dive. Your child is in trouble and you’re
desperate.
Does this sound familiar? It’s time to reach out for help. Addiction is a biochemical disease that attacks and alters the human body. Nowhere does this progress more rapidly than in adolescents. Left untreated, addiction will ultimately prove fatal. With effective treatment, an adolescent alcoholic or addict can truly get better. Call Lakeside-Milam, the Northwest’s leader in effective affordable treatment. (800) 544-1211.
The main thrust of our adolescent program is to help patients recognize that alcoholism and addiction is a primary, progressive disease, rather than any manifestation of a moral consequence, character weakness, or psychological dysfunction. We teach alcoholics and addicts to approach their disease as a treatable condition with a high potential for lasting recovery.
During their stay at our residential center, adolescents learn how addiction affects them physically, socially, and emotionally. Individual and group counseling, lectures, films, school work, and involvement in 12-Step programs focus on value clarifications and the path to recovery. The center’s secluded, park-like grounds and tasteful interior offer a tranquil setting for recovery.
The best way to support a child’s recovery is to involve the whole family. Family Recovery Week is a unique program that helps parents understand how they have been affected by the disease of addiction and how they can participate in their child’s recovery.
