While at Sandstone Care, our fully dedicated academic and vocational adviser will empower each individual to rekindle their motivation, develop confidence, set college and career goals, and foster the skills necessary for independent living.
Our main goal is to help your teen succeed in all aspects of life. We want them to heal physically and mentally, but also to develop and set goals for themselves. Your child doesn’t have to be left behind just because they need treatment.
Recovery isn’t just getting off harmful substances. We go above and beyond to treat co-occurring disorders and to help your child develop skills that will allow them to fully integrate into all parts of life.
Whether it is Academic Support for those still in school or vocational support for our older clients, we have advisers that will assist in skill development, goal setting, and preparation.
When a teen is in treatment for substance use disorders, addiction, mental health conditions, or co-occurring disorders, they may need help juggling their school work as well.
If your teen is in need of a residential level of care, they will be asked to leave their friends, family, and school behind to attend treatment in a recovery-focused environment.
For teens, life and school are hard enough of a struggle, but with academic and vocational support, you don’t have to worry about them falling behind while they try to recover. Your teen can fully focus on treatment and getting back to being themselves again.
Our commitment to our clients’ lasting success and recovery helps us continually exceed licensing standards of care throughout the industry.
Sandstone ensures our teenage clients do not fall behind in school during treatment by requiring participation in academic and vocational programs in conjunction with our therapeutic services.
While at Sandstone Care, our fully dedicated academic and vocational adviser will empower each individual to rekindle their motivation, develop confidence, set college and career goals, and foster the skills necessary for independent living.
Our primary academic goal for teens is to attain a high school diploma and master secondary course material in preparation for post-secondary education.
This achievement is made possible by:
The academic program provides support sessions in order to keep participants on track with their schooling and progress through the completion of higher education. Alongside you and your teen, our academic adviser develops a roadmap to guide each teen to achieve their defined goals.
Evidence-based therapy means using therapeutic approaches that have been proven effective through scientific research. The American Psychological Association created the policies for EBT using the best research available. Using evidence-based treatments ensures that the methods used by therapists are not just based on theories but are backed by solid evidence, so that recovery and healing are never left up to chance.
Some additional benefits include:
Studies have shown that these therapy treatments lead to longer-lasting results and empower you with effective coping skills.
Our licensed clinical staff is trained in therapy treatments that are proven to be effective, which means they can provide you with the best care possible.
Since these kinds of treatments are scientifically proven to be effective, the chances of relapse are less likely. This means you’ll be able to save more money in the long run.
EBT requires specialized training in the different kinds of therapies, which means you are guaranteed qualified, verified therapists are in charge of your care.
Our vocational program was developed in order to allow participants to set their own goals of achieving their desired lifestyle, career, or profession.
The goals for each individual are chosen at the discretion of you and your teen. This promotes your teen’s commitment to achieving these goals.
Alongside you and your teen, our vocational adviser then develops a roadmap to guide your teen in achieving their set goals.
Throughout the program, we develop accountability and build confidence for each individual as we track the progress towards attaining the participant’s goals.
Upon completion of the program, we celebrate the short-term accomplishments of each individual and promote continued development of the long-term goals.
