As the summer season approaches, it is important to be aware of the importance of mental health care for adolescents and teens. The teenage years can be a difficult time for many young people, as they are dealing with the physical and emotional changes that come with puberty. At the same time, they are also trying to establish their identity and figure out where they fit in the world. This can be a lot to handle, and it can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and loneliness.Â
For some adolescents and teens, the summer months can be a particularly tough time. This is because they may not have the same structure and support that they have during the school year. For example, they may not see their friends often and may not have access to the same resources. This can make them feel isolated and alone.
Imagine a healthier, happier summer.
The Summer PHP & IOP at Imagine by Northpoint are here to help.Â
PHP & IOP for Adolescent Mental Health
If your adolescent or teen is struggling with their mental health, it is crucial to seek out professional help. Some of the best options are partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs, or PHPs and IOPs. A PHP offers a high level of care and accountability on an outpatient basis, while an IOP is a type of treatment that provides more intensive care than traditional outpatient therapy. These programs are typically short-term and can be a good option for adolescents who need more support than they can get from a more conventional approach.
In our summer PHP and IOP, we pride ourselves on providing a broad range of treatment modalities that we have found to be the most important and effective. These include but are not limited to:Â
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy
- Dialectical behavior therapy
- Trauma therapy
- Crisis intervention
- Co-occurring disorders intervention
- Family therapy
- Teen relationship counseling
- Psychotherapy
- Interpersonal therapy
- Mindfulness and meditation
- Socioeconomic learning program (SLP)
- Art and music therapy
