Compassionate, Caring Support
Ideal for Teens and Young Adults
Evidence-based treatment programs for teens 11-17 and young adults 18-29 diagnosed with mental health and/or behavioral disorders.
Mind + Body + Heart
Young patients need an open, honest, non-judgmental atmosphere where they can learn about who they are so they can decide how they want to live their lives. At BACA, our goal is to heal the whole person and the whole family. Patients and families willing to engage fully in the treatment process are likely to succeed with BACA’s unique, innovative treatment approach.
We work to restore balance and harmony in family life for teens, young adults, and their loved ones.
When patients, families, and providers commit to the same goal, coordinate their efforts, communicate honestly, and collaborate in the therapeutic process, healing happens. We keep the atmosphere positive and proactive, so our teens, young adults, and their families can rediscover the joy and happiness they may be missing in their lives.
People First, Patients First: You Come First
The tools you learn in a BACA treatment program can be life changing. We teach you to collaborate, communicate, and understand the nuances of emotional and behavioral disorders. We prepare you to re-enter the world with a sustainable vision of health and happiness. We empower you to make positive, productive decisions, stay accountable, and find your place in the world.
At the same time, we teach your family how to support your choices, help them understand what you’re going through, and give them the tools they need to support you the best they can.
You don’t do it alone. Like a family that works as a team to make the days run smoothly, effective treatment requires a team working together to create the conditions for success. Humans are social and family oriented: we do better together than we do alone, and we heal more fully when we have the full support of people we love and respect.
