What Is Outpatient Treatment for Teens?

Outpatient treatment for teens is a structured mental health care approach that allows adolescents to receive individual therapy, family therapy, medication management, and other support services without staying overnight at a facility. Unlike inpatient or residential programs, outpatient mental health treatment offers flexibility, enabling teens to live at home while attending individual family and group therapy sessions. At NexStep, our outpatient program is a few days per week for several hours per day.

Teen outpatient treatment is ideal for those who require professional support but do not need around-the-clock supervision. This level of care is suitable for addressing a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and behavioral disorders.
