New Horizons Female Program

New Horizons Female Program provides general psychiatric and behavioral treatment services for adolescents ages 11 to 17 with an Axis I or Axis II psychiatric disorder. As a result of the disorder, behavioral problems such as violence, aggressiveness, running away, property destruction, harming/threatening harm to self or others, and other severe behavioral and affective disturbances may be present. The severity of their problems requires that services be delivered in a residential setting, with awake supervision 24 hours a day. The approach to assessment and treatment of adolescents is an individualized psychosocial and developmental perspective. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is incorporated into some of the group counseling sessions. Treatment is provided by a multidisciplinary treatment team. A major goal of treatment is to move the adolescent toward significant improvement in order to allow placement or return to a less restrictive environment when discharged.
