We are committed to partnering with each family to guide your teen toward a brighter future.
We recognize that family plays an integral role in teens mental health treatment, which is why guardian participation is a requirement in every Nexus Teen Academy treatment plan. We offer a weekly Family Empowerment Group for parents to develop new social/emotional skills alongside weekly visitation. We also provide family therapy sessions, led by licensed therapists, which creates a safe space for guardians and their teens to address child/parent relational issues. We tailor each session to meet your family’s unique situation. In order for one person in the family system to heal, the whole family gets to reexamine what is working and what can shift. Family involvement ensures the entire family system will be equipped with new skills when it’s time to welcome your loved one home.
Navigating the challenges your teenager may be facing can be an overwhelming experience as a parent or loved one, but we’re here to provide the support and guidance you need. No matter the nature of the struggles your teen is encountering, whether it’s depression, mental health concerns, substance issues, dishonesty, or behavioral challenges, we are here to help.
Nexus Teen Academy uses an evidence based model including standardized protocols, group curriculums and client-centered care for each individual. Our philosophy of care focuses on building a safe space for residents to be vulnerable, express themselves authentically, discover passions, and gain purpose and insight into their personal vision for their lives to reduce their prior high-risk behaviors.
Every teen in residential care at Nexus Teen Academy receives a tailored treatment plan, designed by an integrated team of experts in adolescent mental health and behavioral health treatment.

When you call, a Nexus Admissions expert will guide you through a series of questions to assess your situation.
