How We Address Adolescent Behavioral & Mental Health in Treatment
At Montville Adolescent Center, we recognize that mental health challenges like anxiety, depression, and trauma often intertwine with substance use disorders in teenagers, requiring extensive therapeutic intervention.
We’ve developed specialized treatment approaches that address the complex relationship between behavioral health concerns and addiction, ensuring our teens receive integrated care for conditions such as social anxiety, major depressive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Through evidence-based therapies, including CBT and DBT, combined with trauma-informed care practices, we help our young clients build resilience while learning effective strategies to manage their mental health symptoms alongside their recovery journey.
Our comprehensive teen addiction treatment ensures that each adolescent receives the support they need for lasting recovery.
Anxiety Treatment
Recognizing that anxiety often accompanies substance use disorders in teens, our treatment approach combines evidence-based therapies to address both conditions simultaneously.
At Montville Adolescent Center, we utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help teens identify anxiety triggers and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
Our thorough anxiety treatment integrates individual therapy sessions, where we work one-on-one with teens to investigate underlying causes of their anxiety, while our group therapy sessions provide a supportive environment for practicing stress-management techniques.
Through creative arts therapy, we offer alternative ways for teens to express their anxious feelings, and our structured daily routine helps reduce uncertainty-related stress.
We’ll also collaborate with families during therapy sessions to establish support systems that reinforce anxiety management strategies at home.
Treatment for Depression
Depression and substance use disorders often intertwine, creating complex challenges for teens seeking recovery. At Montville Adolescent Center, we recognize that addressing depression requires a thorough, evidence-based approach that integrates multiple therapeutic modalities.
We utilize a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help teens identify and modify negative thought patterns while developing healthy coping mechanisms.
Our individual therapy sessions provide a safe space for exploring underlying emotional issues, while group therapy offers peer support and shared learning experiences.
Through creative arts therapy, we enable teens to express difficult emotions non-verbally, and our family therapy sessions help address systemic issues that may contribute to depression.
Additionally, we coordinate with psychiatrists to manage medication when clinically appropriate, ensuring a well-rounded treatment approach.
Trauma & PTSD
The profound impact of trauma and PTSD on adolescent substance use can’t be overlooked in treatment. At Montville Adolescent Center, we recognize that traumatic experiences often underlie addiction, which is why we employ specialized trauma-informed therapeutic approaches, including CBT and DBT, to help teens process their experiences safely.
Our integrated treatment model addresses both the psychological and physiological effects of trauma through individual therapy, group sessions, and creative arts therapy.
We work closely with teens to identify triggers, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and build resilience skills that support long-term recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
At our Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve assembled answers to parents’ most pressing questions about our teen rehabilitation program, including insurance coverage, visitation policies, and educational continuity during treatment.
Our thorough insurance verification process helps families understand their coverage options, while our structured visitation program and family therapy sessions guarantee ongoing connection and support throughout the recovery journey.
We maintain seamless educational coordination with each teen’s home school district, offer both private and semi-private room options, and provide dedicated family support services to create a complete treatment experience that addresses both immediate needs and long-term success.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Yes, insurance typically covers teen drug and alcohol rehab treatment costs, either partially or fully.
Thanks to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA), insurance companies must cover essential health benefits, including substance use disorder treatment and mental health services.
We accept most insurance plans at Montville Adolescent Center, and we’ll help determine your coverage before admission.
To understand your specific benefits and potential out-of-pocket costs, we encourage you to speak with one of our admissions counselors, who can verify your insurance coverage and explain payment options in detail.
For families without insurance coverage, we offer additional payment arrangements to guarantee that teens can access the treatment they need for successful recovery.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Parents can visit their teens during designated visitation hours on Sundays at Montville Adolescent Center.
We recognize the importance of maintaining family connections throughout the treatment process, which is why we’ve established clear visitation protocols to guarantee productive and supportive interactions.
Before visiting, family members and guardians must meet several requirements: they must be at least 18 years old, receive approval from our clinical staff, and attend a Family Support Session.
These requirements help create a therapeutic environment that supports your teen’s recovery journey.
We carefully structure visitation to complement our family-centric approach to treatment, allowing parents to stay connected while respecting the intensive nature of our program.
To maintain safety and therapeutic integrity, we require all visitors to follow our facility’s guidelines and protocols during their visits.
Do you offer support to family members?
Family support services form a core component of our teen rehabilitation program at Montville Adolescent Center.
We recognize that addiction affects the entire family system, which is why we’ve developed extensive support services that include regular family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and weekly progress updates.
Throughout your teen’s treatment, we’ll work closely with your family to address underlying issues, improve communication patterns, and develop healthy coping strategies.
Our family support program includes dedicated family therapy sessions, where we’ll help you understand your teen’s challenges while providing tools for supporting their recovery journey.
Additionally, we offer educational resources about substance use disorders, mental health, and effective parenting strategies that can help strengthen your family’s foundation as you steer through this challenging time together.
What educational coordination is offered?
Educational success remains a top priority at Montville Adolescent Center through our extensive academic coordination program. We partner directly with each teen’s home school district to guarantee continuity in their education, dedicating two hours daily to structured academic activities that align with their current curriculum.
Our academic coordination team works diligently to maintain attendance credits and course progression, while our staff actively communicates with school administrators to facilitate a seamless change both during treatment and upon return to regular classes.
We’re committed to preventing academic setbacks, providing individualized support through our 1:1 staff-to-client ratio, and making sure that your teen’s educational journey continues uninterrupted.
Through this all-encompassing approach, we help students maintain their academic standing while addressing their treatment needs.
Will my teenager have their own room?
At Montville Adolescent Center, we offer both private and semi-private room options for our teen residents. Our thoughtfully designed living spaces guarantee comfort and security while supporting our therapeutic environment, with gender-specific housing floors that maintain appropriate boundaries and foster a sense of community.
We’ve carefully considered the balance between privacy and connection in our room arrangements, as we recognize that teens need both personal space and opportunities for healthy social interaction during their recovery journey.
While private rooms offer additional solitude for reflection and rest, our semi-private accommodations help develop important social skills and peer support networks.
Each room option is equipped with essential amenities and regularly monitored by our attentive staff to maintain our 1:1 staff-to-client ratio and guarantee resident safety.
Do you prescribe medications?
Medication management is an important component of our teen treatment program, with all prescribing decisions made under careful medical supervision.
When considering new medications or changes to existing prescriptions, we’ll first discuss these with parents or guardians to guarantee complete transparency and informed consent.
For teens who already work with a psychiatrist or primary care provider, we’ll request that parents sign our Release of Information (ROI) form.
This vital documentation allows us to communicate directly with your child’s healthcare providers, verify previous treatment protocols, and coordinate any medication adjustments during their stay.
We’ll also make certain that all medication-related information is properly communicated for post-treatment care, maintaining continuity in your teen’s medical management throughout their recovery journey.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
Structured rules and boundaries play a key role in our teen treatment program’s success. We maintain clear expectations for conduct, including mandatory participation in therapeutic activities, adherence to daily schedules, and respectful behavior toward staff and peers.
During treatment, teens must follow our dress code policy, attend all scheduled therapy sessions, and complete assigned academic work.
Our guidelines prohibit cell phones and unauthorized internet access to maintain focus on recovery, though we do provide scheduled times for family communication.
Additionally, we require teens to participate in community meetings, maintain personal hygiene and living spaces, and follow medication protocols as prescribed.
These rules create a therapeutic environment where teens can develop accountability, responsibility, and healthy habits that support their long-term recovery journey.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending your teenager to an out-of-state treatment facility often provides significant therapeutic advantages.
At our Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve found that physical distance from familiar triggers and negative influences creates a fresh environment for recovery, allowing teens to focus entirely on their healing journey.
We’ve observed that out-of-state treatment helps break destructive patterns by removing adolescents from peer groups that may enable substance use.
Additionally, our location in Towaco, New Jersey, offers a serene setting that’s still accessible, being just 45 minutes from Manhattan and 2 hours from Philadelphia.
This balanced distance provides both the separation needed for effective treatment and the convenience for family participation in therapy sessions, which remains vital to long-term recovery success.

Starting treatment at Montville Adolescent Center involves a straightforward three-step process.
First, you’ll connect with our admissions team who’ll conduct a brief, 10-minute pre-assessment over the phone to guarantee we’re the right fit for your teen’s specific needs.
Next, we’ll verify your insurance benefits and discuss payment options, helping you understand the coverage available for your child’s treatment.
