Teen Mental Health Rehabilitation Services

Does your teen struggle with more than just the “normal” ups and downs? Some youth need a higher level of care to get back on track. Our Mental Health Rehabilitation (MHR) Services are here to help.

Teens may qualify for services if they are experiencing:
• Serious anger or aggression (fighting, defiance, destructive behavior)
• Risky peer groups or hanging around with the wrong crowd
• Frequent suspensions, expulsions, or school failure
• Probation or court involvement ⚖️
• Substance use concerns 🚬
• Emotional disturbance (depression, anxiety, trauma responses)
• Family conflict or running away from home

Our program focuses on teaching teens the tools they need to:
✔️ Regulate emotions and manage anger
✔️ Improve behavior at home and school
✔️ Build healthy peer relationships
✔️ Stay accountable and make positive choices
✔️ Develop resilience for long-term success

At Empowered Counseling Services, we believe every teen deserves the chance to heal, grow, and thrive.
