About
Nestled on a picturesque 350-acre property in southeastern New Hampshire, The Ridge RTC – New Hampshire provides an extensive residential treatment program designed for adolescents aged 12-18, with a strong emphasis on tackling the fundamental emotional and mental health challenges that contribute to disruptive behaviors. The program features individual therapy sessions three times weekly, various group therapy formats, family therapy, psychiatric evaluations, medication management, recreational therapy, nutritional guidance, and academic assistance. With typical stays lasting between 30 and 90 days, tailored to individual circumstances and clinical advice, the primary aim is to empower both clients and their families in achieving lasting recovery and adopting healthier lifestyles.
At the core of The Ridge's initiative is intensive therapy, which delivers a level of clinical care that greatly surpasses what is typically found at home, school, or standard outpatient services. Each teen benefits from at least three individual therapy sessions weekly, engages in three daily group therapy activities, and participates in regular family therapy sessions. Their methodology is founded on a care approach that merges clinical knowledge with evidence-based practices, experiential learning, and expressive therapies, fostering a healing environment that addresses cognitive, emotional, and physical wellness. Additionally, the program highlights the rejuvenating influence of nature through outdoor activities designed to enhance communication skills, build trust, and support emotional regulation.
Ensuring accessibility to care is a primary concern for The Ridge RTC. They maintain partnerships with most leading insurance providers, ensuring that more families can benefit from their all-encompassing treatment options. This pledge to broaden access illustrates The Ridge RTC’s commitment to aiding teens and their families on their path to recovery and overall health. By eliminating financial obstacles, The Ridge RTC aspires to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those who require assistance.
