Adolescents - Emory, Virginia

As a parent or caregiver the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment facility is often an overwhelming task. Unfortunately, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional help in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend a traditional drug treatment facility. Many specialized and age appropriate drug treatment centers have been created to focus on adolescents and their specific requirements pertaining to drug addiction rehabilitation. Treatment professionals who are trained in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your child and guide them through their recovery process.
