Adolescent Substance Abuse Treatment and Counseling

Substance Abuse Help:

Family Recovery Specialists offers adolescent substance abuse treatment and counseling in Miami, Florida. We work to treat the unique needs of adolescents and young adults with substance abuse and addiction. Teens and young adults are going through a difficult developmental stage as they transition from childhood into adulthood. While some experimentation with alcohol and other drugs often occurs during this time,  it can lead to problematic use if allowed to progress without some type of treatment. Studies indicate the younger a person begins using substances, the more likely they are to become addicted. Also, adolescents and younger adults progress through the stages of use more quickly than adults and often exhibit more behavioral problems as a result of substance use.

Proven Steps to Recovery:

Family Recovery Specialists not only provides addiction treatment, we treat the whole individual including their physical, psychological, behavioral, social and spiritual components. We utilize 12 step principles in our program that focus on healthy behaviors and lifestyle choices for adolescents and young adults. Our teen rehab involves cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing within a Stages of Change model and a family based approach to the treatment of chemical dependency. Family involvement is integral in the recovery process and all family members are encouraged to participate in treatment from the point of evaluation through discharge planning and aftercare. Parents take part in educational lectures, multi-family groups, and individual family sessions so they may be supported as their loved one begins the process of recovery.
