About
Newport Academy’s facility in North Carolina provides specialized care for teenage boys aged 12-18 in gender-specific residences. The center addresses a variety of issues, including mental health disorders, substance abuse, trauma, and eating disorders. Their holistic approach targets the mind, body, and spirit during the recovery process, emphasizing the importance of family involvement for comprehensive healing and offering strong academic support on-site.
Tailored Recovery for Adolescent Boys and Their Families
Upon entering the program, each teenage boy undergoes an evaluation to accurately determine their specific needs and treatment goals. A customized care team, which encompasses counselors, nurses, psychiatrists, and dietitians, then works collaboratively to support each individual. Newport Academy employs attachment-based family therapy (ABFT) to assist in mending family dynamics. Through both individual and group therapy sessions, teens learn to connect with themselves and their peers, developing new coping strategies and emotional regulation skills.
The center crafts personalized treatment plans that feature art and music therapy, yoga, meditation, adventure therapy, and other evidence-based practices. Participants engage in both group and individual therapeutic sessions, outdoor activities, and equine-assisted programs. For those struggling with eating disorders, specialized services include nutritional counseling from certified professionals alongside mental health support and engaging experiential activities. The North Carolina location allows for a variety of adventure therapies and the benefits of nearby parks and nature reserves.
Newport Academy ensures that teens remain on track academically by providing tutoring and customized educational programs. On-site educators align academic achievements with therapeutic initiatives, offering a secure environment for both learning and healing. The curriculum is fully accredited, and support is available for SAT and ACT preparation, as well as college application processes. Staff members maintain communication with the teens' home schools to facilitate a smooth reintegration post-treatment.
Treatment Focus
