Mental Health Programs for Children & Teens in Tampa, FL

Children and teenagers can struggle with mental health issues just the same as adults. In the U.S., more than 16 percent of kids under age 18 – or one out of six – experience a mental health disorder such as depression, anxiety, or substance abuse. Yet nearly half do not receive treatment.*

The good news is, children’s mental health programs at our Tampa, FL-area facilities can prevent more severe, lasting problems as kids get older. That’s why it’s so important to get help as early as possible.

We offer help to adolescent females ages 13-18. And we offer hope to kids and their families.

What We Treat

It can be tough to know if you have a mental health disorder, especially when you’re a teenager or younger. These years can be challenging for anyone.

But it’s not uncommon for symptoms of potentially serious illnesses to first show during adolescence. These conditions are painful, dangerous, and frightening.

We treat children and teens with:

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Bipolar disorder
• Other mood disorders
• Substance use disorder

Our facility provides a safe, secure space where kids can grow and heal, where they can learn skills that will help them for the rest of their lives.

What Treatment Programs Look Like

At our treatment center, kids participate in programs designed specifically for them. They’re cared for by a team of mental health professionals who are trained in working with children and teens. All of our programs include an educational component so that kids can keep up with their schoolwork.

Inpatient treatment

We offer 24-hour medical monitoring for children or teenagers who are emotionally unstable. Inpatient treatment also provides a variety of therapeutic activities, as well as medication management.

In all children's mental health programs, families play an important role in helping kids develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Children and teens also have opportunities to participate in group therapy centered around topics of interest to them, like LGBTQ, dealing with trauma, and faith-based support.
