Teen Mental Health & Addiction Treatment in Southern California

Newport Academy is a nationally respected teen residential treatment center in Southern California, offering comprehensive

adolescent mental health and addiction treatment. Their whole-person approach supports teens struggling with substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders by addressing the mind, body, and emotional well-being—while actively involving families in the recovery process. Founded by father-and-son team Jim Monroe and Jamison Monroe Jr., Newport Academy was created from personal experience and has since expanded to locations across the United States.

Personalized, Family-Centered Care

Each teen begins with a comprehensive clinical assessment, followed by a personalized treatment plan led by a multidisciplinary team of therapists, nurses, psychiatrists, and dietitians. Newport Academy emphasizes family therapy, including Attachment-Based Family Therapy (ABFT), along with individual and group therapy to rebuild trust, strengthen communication, and support lasting recovery.

Evidence-Based Therapy & On-Site Academics

FAQ's of Newport Academy Southern California

While attending a teen outpatient program, your child is in programming during the day or afternoon, and is at home overnight and on weekends. In inpatient treatment, teens live on-site at a residential location while receiving treatment. Both residential treatment and the highest level of outpatient care (a Partial Hospitalization Program, or PHP) typically include an academic component.

The main difference between Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), and outpatient services is the amount of time your child spends in treatment. At the PHP day program level, adolescents attend all-day programming, five days a week. The IOP level is usually five afternoons a week, following the client’s attendance at their home school. Outpatient services refer to the lowest level of teen outpatient treatment, with programming provided fewer than five afternoons a week, depending on the client’s and family’s needs and goals.

In a teen outpatient program, clients typically have a structured daily schedule that includes individual and group therapy sessions, experiential modalities, and time in the classroom focusing on academics and life skills. Depending on the day and the outpatient program location, teens may be tubing on a nearby river, doing yoga a ropes course, making art or music, doing community service with their peers, or participating in family programs that involve parents and siblings in the healing process.

Teen outpatient treatment encompasses teen therapy and much more. A PHP, IOP, or outpatient services for your child will provide a wide range of therapeutic and academic experiences, while offering a stable and supportive community and addressing the entire family’s needs.
