The Importance of Teen Addiction Treatment

It’s easy to think of teenagers as little adults. But that doesn’t quite capture that stage of life accurately. There are significant differences between adults and adolescents that influence how they should be treated for drug abuse.

Specifically, the brains of teens are still developing. They don’t have the same level of emotional regulation or maturity that is seen in most adults. Mental health issues can also be more pronounced and potentially more dangerous.

The brain differences between teens and adults mean that a treatment center that focuses on caring for teens will need to have plans that serve the unique challenges faced by people in this age range. Some of the same treatment components will be present with teens and adults – things like group therapy, for example – but other aspects will be different.

If your teen is struggling with a substance abuse problem, getting help at a treatment center that serves adolescents should be your top priority. While the best path toward dealing with drug abuse is prevention, as promoted by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, some teens will wind up facing addiction and will need help immediately.

Using Insurance to Pay for Teen Rehab

Getting care for substance abuse at any age can be expensive. Many parents have felt stuck between wanting to enter their teen in an inpatient or intensive outpatient program, only to be unsure if they can afford it.

Using insurance coverage is the answer. Today’s health insurance policies are generally required to include coverage for visiting a treatment center to receive attention for substance abuse or mental health disorders.

The coverage that is provided by an insurance policy will vary based on a number of factors. If you have a typical policy, it’s likely that your teen will be covered for treatment programs here at Artemis. That coverage may account for part of the cost of treatment, or it may cover the entire cost.

You should contact us directly to get a better understanding of how your benefits will apply to our treatment center. We’ll be happy to run your insurance and explain what would be covered and what your costs would be for our drug abuse and mental health services.

Artemis Offers a Range of Services

There are many different reasons possible for entering your child in a treatment center. They might be struggling with mental health issues. They could have a substance abuse problem that includes alcohol, marijuana, vaping, prescription medications, or illicit drugs.

Our services can address all of these matters effectively. We have provided substance abuse treatment for many teen clients and are able to deliver results that not only break the addiction pattern, but also set the stage for lasting recovery.

Our Approach to Teen Drug Rehab and Alcohol Addiction Treatment

For a better understanding of the experience your teen will have with Artemis, go through the sections below to take a peek at our treatment process.

Detailed Assessment

This is the critical starting point. Every individual is unique and the challenges they are facing need to be fully understood by our team before a treatment plan can be established.

Substance use treatment is far more effective when it is tailored to the individual. Sure, there are common features among most treatment plans, but getting the details just right will help overcome mental health conditions and substance use disorder struggles.

It’s important to note that there will be no judgment or criticism of you or your child during the assessment phase – or at any point during our treatment programs. We understand the challenges that life presents and are only interested in fostering healing for your family.

Individual Therapy

The core of substance abuse treatment is often individual therapy sessions. These sessions allow the teen to get into important conversations with the therapist that will get down to the heart of what is behind their addiction struggles.

Finding triggers and past traumas is part of what the therapist will be working to uncover. These sessions will also talk about emotional regulation and how emotions can play a key role in substance abuse. Not only do therapy sessions help the teen better understand themselves and their situation in life, but they can also provide motivation for change.

Group Therapy

It’s common for teens to feel isolated during their struggles. As a parent, you might struggle to relate to what they are going through, and communication between you and your child could be strained.

This is why group therapy almost always plays a vital role in the treatment that you seek with the help of insurance coverage. During group therapy sessions, the teen will realize that they aren’t alone and there are others in the same situation. This is a big breakthrough moment and can be a turning point in the substance abuse battle. The relationships formed in group therapy may prove to be some of the most important that your teen ever builds.

Family Therapy Sessions

As mentioned above, family relationships can be strained when addiction problems exist. Through family therapy, it’s possible to rebuild those connections and even make them stronger than they have ever been.

Our treatment center places an emphasis on involving the family because of how powerful support from home can be. When a teen feels supported and heard even while going through difficult times, it makes the challenging experience of drug rehab far more manageable.

Academic Support

Along with the very serious physical and mental consequences of addiction, teens who enter drug rehab also have to deal with the academic fallout of their situation. Falling behind in school makes it difficult to keep bigger life plans for the future on track.

Quality treatment programs not only work with your insurance provider to handle the financial side of this matter, but they also offer academic support. This could mean providing tutoring and homework help, or it could mean coordinating with schools to work out a schedule and process to get the student back on track.

Life Skills Development

While looking at treatment programs for your teen, it’s easy to lose track of the bigger picture. Yes, you want to help your teen get through drug rehab and back on track, but there’s more to life that your teen should be experiencing. So, developing life skills during the treatment that is covered by your insurance provider needs to be a focus.

Many different types of life skills can be developed during this phase. Nutrition and wellness education may be provided, and creative therapies like art and music can be used to expose young people to new possibilities.

Finding the Right Level of Care

While individual and group therapy are core components of virtually all types of treatment, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to substance abuse and mental health care.

One variable to keep in mind is the level of care that will be offered to your teen under your insurance coverage. Three possibilities are listed below.

Residential Treatment

This type of treatment is exactly as it sounds – your teen lives at the treatment center and gets care around the clock to make meaningful progress on their addiction as quickly as possible. From managing withdrawal symptoms to setting the stage for the next steps in recovery, everything will be handled by an experienced and professional team.

Partial Hospitalization Program

You can think of this level of treatment as a step down in intensity from the residential treatment program. At this point, your teen will be getting rehab treatment throughout the day, but will be going home at night. This is still a highly structured, rigorous program, but it allows for additional freedom and flexibility that is not seen with residential care.

Outpatient Services

The most flexible option is outpatient services offered at teen rehab centers. Some teens will start at this level based on the results of their initial assessment, while others will progress to this point after going through residential treatment, a partial hospitalization program, or both.

Despite the added flexibility, meaningful progress can still be made with outpatient treatment. There will be ongoing support, the family will be involved in the therapies that are provided, and progress will be actively monitored so any necessary changes can be made right away.
