You feel overwhelmed. You feel helpless. This wasn’t supposed to happen to your family, your kid. You feel alone. You failed your kid. Angry, sad, frustrated. At Sandstone Care, we approach the treatment of addiction and mental health by supporting the whole family system. The substance abuse problem did not start in isolation and it cannot be treated in isolation. We partner with you in the treatment of your child. We offer support for you throughout the process.
Sandstone Care provides a comprehensive, evidence-based treatment program exclusively for adolescents, young adults, and their families. By strictly focusing on younger clients, we believe we can achieve the highest rate of success because we address issues early on while clients are still in their developmental years.

Many times, teens and young adults are involuntarily entered into treatment by their family. Our CLICC framework allows us to connect with involuntary participants to garner their commitment to change.

Starting the conversation is the best first step. We are here to help in any way possible!
