At Guardian Recovery, we believe everyone deserves the freedom to live unburdened by behavioral health issues, including mental health and substance use disorders.
Based on the holistic approach we’ve refined over 15 years of successfully treating adult behavioral health disorders, our adolescent program was born from a recognition that teens needed a unique approach to recovery — one that addresses their specific developmental needs and the complexities of growing up in today’s world. What started as a small, dedicated team has grown into a comprehensive program that has helped thousands of young people reclaim their lives and build a foundation for a healthy future.
