Our admissions team is ready to walk you through these details, verify your insurance benefits at no cost, and help create a personalized treatment plan that considers your teenager’s unique needs and your family’s specific situation.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Insurance coverage for teen addiction treatment is extensive thanks to federal regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA).
These laws require insurance companies to provide coverage for essential health benefits, including mental health and substance use disorder treatment, at levels comparable to medical and surgical benefits.

Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Family visitation policies at Montville Adolescent Center allow teens to receive visitors during designated Sunday hours.
We recognize the significance of maintaining family connections throughout the treatment process, which is why we’ve established clear guidelines to guarantee productive and supportive visits.
To maintain a therapeutic environment, we require all visitors to be family members or legal guardians who are at least 18 years of age.
Before any visits can occur, our clinical staff must approve potential visitors, and we require family members to participate in a Family Support Session.
This preparatory session helps create meaningful interactions during visits and supports our thorough treatment approach.
We’ve found that these structured visitation policies help strengthen family bonds while maintaining the focused, therapeutic environment that’s essential for your teen’s recovery journey.
Do you offer support to family members?
Beyond regular visitation, extensive family support forms a core part of our treatment philosophy at Montville Adolescent Center.
We offer thorough family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and support groups designed to help parents and siblings understand addiction, improve communication, and develop healthy coping strategies. Our family programs include weekly therapy sessions where families work together to address underlying issues and strengthen relationships.
Additionally, we provide regular updates on your teen’s progress through scheduled conferences with our clinical team, while offering resources and guidance on how to create a supportive home environment.
Through our parent education program, we’ll help you understand the recovery process, recognize potential triggers, and learn effective ways to support your teen’s long-term sobriety once they return home.
What educational coordination is offered?
Throughout your teen’s stay at Montville Adolescent Center, we maintain active coordination with their home school district to guarantee they don’t fall behind academically.
We dedicate two hours daily to structured educational activities, working closely with your child’s teachers to secure seamless curriculum integration and proper attendance credits.

We’ve designed our academic support system to complement therapeutic programming, incorporating supervised study periods and individualized tutoring when needed.
Additionally, we provide regular academic assessments and maintain open communication channels with both parents and school officials to track your teen’s educational development throughout their recovery journey.
Will my teenager have their own room?
At Montville Adolescent Center, we offer both private and semi-private room options for teens in our residential program.
Our thoughtfully designed living spaces prioritize comfort, safety, and therapeutic value while maintaining appropriate supervision levels for adolescent care.
For teens who may benefit from additional privacy during their recovery journey, our private rooms provide a personal sanctuary where they can reflect, study, and process their experiences.

Do you prescribe medications?
During your teen’s treatment at Montville Adolescent Center, we follow strict protocols for medication management under the supervision of our medical staff.
Before making any changes to existing medications or prescribing new ones, we’ll discuss all options with you as parents or guardians to guarantee you’re fully informed and comfortable with the treatment plan.

This allows us to communicate directly with your child’s psychiatrist or primary care physician about their medication history and any adjustments made during treatment.
Through this collaborative approach, we can guarantee continuity of care and develop the most effective medication strategy for your teen’s specific needs both during and after their time with us.

Additionally, we’ve specific protocols regarding phone calls and visitation, which we’ll discuss during admission.
While these rules might seem strict, they’re designed to create a therapeutic environment where your teen can focus on their recovery journey without unnecessary distractions or potential triggers.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending your teenager out of state for treatment offers several distinct advantages for their recovery journey. While remaining close to home may seem ideal, physical distance can provide vital separation from negative influences and triggers that contributed to substance use.
At our Montville facility, we’ve found that teens who travel for treatment often experience enhanced focus on their recovery, free from local peer pressure and familiar environmental stressors.
Additionally, out-of-state treatment allows adolescents to build new, healthy relationships with peers who share similar recovery goals, while our academic partnership program guarantees they stay on track with their studies.
The change in environment can also foster greater personal growth and self-discovery, as teens learn to maneuver their recovery journey away from the comfort zone that may have enabled their substance use behaviors.
How do I get started?
Taking the first step toward teen addiction treatment is straightforward and confidential at Montville Adolescent Center. When you reach out to our admissions team, we’ll guide you through a simple three-step process that begins with a brief, 10-minute phone assessment to confirm we’re the right fit for your teen’s needs.
After completing the initial assessment, our team will verify your insurance benefits and discuss any financial considerations, making sure you understand the coverage available for your child’s treatment.
Once these details are confirmed, we’ll work with you to arrange a convenient intake time, during which we’ll welcome your family and begin your teen’s personalized treatment journey.
Throughout this process, our compassionate admissions counselors remain available to answer questions and address any concerns you may have.
