Healing at Idaho Youth Ranch

The care & services teens need

Idaho has experienced a frightening rise in teenage depression and teen suicide. Many teens find themselves in an emotional crisis without someone they can trust and without access to the resources they need. 

Many families are unfamiliar with mental and behavioral health care. Thankfully, the stigmas around counseling and mental health are beginning to subside. Our experienced therapy team is here to help you and your teen access the proper care by diagnosing mental health conditions and providing expert psychotherapy through individualized, youth-focused treatment models.*

Our priority is to help teens and adolescents overcome whatever pain or challenges they might be facing to find healing and hope.

*Unlike psychiatrists, our outpatient therapy team does not prescribe or deliver medication management.

 

How We Heal

Trusted Treatment Models

Idaho Youth Ranch provides a variety of evidence-based therapeutic practices.  Your child's therapist will select and tailor therapeutic interventions in their treatment plan based on their individualized needs. Services are available in the office or virtually through our TeleMental Health

In a study after the first full academic year after the pandemic, the Centers for Disease Control found that more than 4 out of 10 teenagers feel "persistently sad or hopeless," and 1 in 5 teenagers has contemplated suicide.

 

If you are concerned that your teenager may be experiencing these challenges, now is the time for you to provide the parental leadership your child needs and seek help through teen counseling. 

What We Treat

Expert care for youth mental health challenges

As parents, sometimes it is too easy to downplay the stress our teenagers are experiencing. While the teenage years have always been somewhat challenging, there are new stressors we didn't often experience growing up that create new challenges for our youth. 

What sets Idaho Youth Ranch apart

Our approach is designed to meet young people where they are to nurture hope, healing, and resilience. Alongside each available therapy program and individualized treatment plan, Idaho Youth Ranch employs trauma-informed care practices throughout our work.

Traumatic experiences, such as Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), can have a dramatic ripple effect on the lives of young people. The effects of trauma can be profound and far-reaching - often impacting a person's mental, physical, emotional, and behavioral well-being.

Treating childhood trauma requires a specialized approach, called trauma-informed care, that addresses the deep emotional effects of trauma, promotes healing, and builds resilience.
