Working through mental health issues can be overwhelming and even more challenging if you’re uncomfortable or find it hard to open up.

As someone considering mental health care, it is totally normal to worry or have questions about the center you’ll be at or the mental health professionals you’ll be interacting with.

To calm anxiety caused by those ‘unknowns,’ we put together a fun video tour of the Sandstone Care Colorado Springs Center for Depression, Trauma, & Anxiety.

Our awesome staff creates a judgment-free zone so you feel safe and heard. And while the staff is trained and specialized in age-specific and evidence-based treatment, they are still regular people.

This expansive center is designed with plenty of space, snacks, and games to make your time with us fun, productive, and as comfortable as possible.

Not only was the group supportive, but the support from the staff was amazing.

I initially came to Sandstone for IOP and it helped me get through a really though time in my life. I ended up staying through OP and I would recommend it to anyone that needs support with their mental health.

If you or a loved one is using substances to cope with mental health issues, our mental health program might be the right fit. If the main concern is still substance use, we may suggest a Substance Use Disorder (SUD) program and help with the referral process. Your well-being is our top priority, and we’re here to assist you on the path to the most suitable support.

When mental health care is customized to your specific age group, it becomes more relevant and resonant with your life experiences, challenges, and developmental needs. This personalized approach addresses issues in a way that directly connects with your reality, making the interventions more impactful.
Studies indicate that this alignment with personal context increases engagement and commitment to the treatment process. When the care is based on what matters to you, it is more likely to be effective in producing positive, lasting changes in your mental health and well-being. The individualized focus ensures that the strategies and support provided align with your unique circumstances, leading to more meaningful and enduring results.

At Sandstone Care, we understand that mental health issues don’t happen in isolation—they affect the whole family. We recognize the crucial role families play in supporting their loved ones. Our approach involves providing comprehensive support because we believe that everyone needs to be both accountable and cared for.
To treat the family, we offer therapy and support groups facilitated by expert family therapists. These professionals guide families through the challenges, offering a space for understanding, communication, and collective healing. Our goal is to ensure that families are equipped with the tools they need to break negative cycles and learn to create healthy relationships with each other.

The young adult mental health program runs from 9am-12pm on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday of each week. During that time the program focuses on providing therapy and behavioral health services. In addition, the program provides 2 hours of academic and vocational work per week, on Tuesday and Thursday from 1-2pm. We take special note of any learning disabilities or other special circumstances that need to be taken into account during our academic and vocational assistance.
