Finding support for your teen when they’re struggling with their mental health is important. You’ll want to find a program that supports his mind, body, and spirit rather than treating them like just another misbehaving teen. Family First’s holistic therapy program provides opportunities and compassionate care that supports every aspect of healing. 

Since 2014, we have been helping teens reconnect with themselves at our Palm Beach Gardens, FL, treatment center. While our team members are experts in their clinical fields, we know that more matters to your teen than traditional therapy sessions. During their time here, they’ll be challenged with exercise classes, learn responsibility during equine therapy, and explore their creative side during art therapy. Find your teen the help they need now in our therapy services for teens by calling 888.904.5947. 

A Holistic Approach to Adolescent Therapy

Holistic therapy is a comprehensive approach to mental health treatment that considers the overall well-being of your teen. This method takes into account not just the physical but also the emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of his life. By addressing all these areas, holistic therapy aims to promote healing and balance, offering a more complete and effective treatment. 

Whether your teen is dealing with complex mental health issues, substance abuse, or other challenges, holistic therapy can be an essential part of their recovery journey. It offers a personalized and integrative approach that focuses on his unique needs and experiences. 

How We Use Holistic Therapy in Florida

At Family First Adolescent Services, we believe that every young teen is unique, with individual needs that require personalized care. Our team of experienced professionals understands this and utilizes various holistic techniques, such as: 

  • Equine therapy – This form of therapy involves interactions with horses to promote self-awareness, empathy, and emotional regulation. 
  • Meditative therapy – Through guided meditation and mindfulness practices, your teen can learn to manage stress and improve his overall well-being. 
  • Adventure therapy – Since we are right on the water, your teen can paddleboard and go on deep-sea fishing adventures in small groups under the guidance of our expert staff. 
  • Expressive art therapy – Art is a powerful tool for self-expression, allowing your teen to explore his emotions in a safe and creative way 
  • Play therapy – Adolescence can be a challenging time, and play therapy offers an avenue for your teen to express theirself, process difficult emotions, and learn coping skills. 
  • Sandtray therapy – This unique therapy uses a small tray of sand and miniature figures to help your teen explore and express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a non-verbal way. 
  • Fitness and wellness therapy – Our CrossFit trainer and gym offer a holistic approach to fitness and wellness, promoting physical health and overall well-being. 
  • Music therapy – Through music, your teen can express and process emotions, develop coping skills, and improve communication. 

We address the mind, body, and spirit in an integrated approach that strives to help your teen achieve lasting recovery. 

Our Commitment to Safety 

Experiential and adventure therapy programs give teens new opportunities to gain perspective on their mental health while processing emotions in non-verbal ways. The Family First team is committed to keeping our clients safe during treatment, especially during experiential therapies. Each session or outing only consists of 6–14 teens and is led by an experienced and licensed therapist, with safety protocols and precautions in place.  

We have a staff-to-client ratio of 3:1, allowing us to provide personalized care and attention while ensuring the safety of all participants. Teens only participate in experiential therapies that make sense in their treatment plans and are appropriate for their individual needs. Plus, caregivers receive updates at least three times a week, with our case managers available 24/7 via text to answer questions and address any concerns. 

Benefits of a Holistic Therapy Program

Enrolling your teen in a holistic therapy program at Family First offers numerous benefits. Primarily, holistic therapy focuses on treating the root causes of mental health issues rather than merely addressing the symptoms. This deep-rooted approach helps your son develop coping skills and strategies that he can apply in various aspects of his life. 

Moreover, holistic therapy promotes self-awareness, self-acceptance, and personal growth. It encourages your teen to take an active role in their own healing process and empowers them to make positive changes, improving not only their mental health but also their overall well-being.
