Teens ages 12 -18 receive care through outpatient and intensive outpatient programs (IOP), with walk-in assessments available. The center stands out for its personal, non-judgmental approach that invites family involvement and supports long-term recovery. Specialized tracks, like the Women’s IOP, address unique needs such as trauma, parenting, and gender-specific experiences.Evidence-Based Treatment a Key Part of RecoveryTreatment is led by licensed counselors, therapists, and peer support specialists using evidence-based therapies. Services include individual and group counseling, family therapy, and support from peers who have walked the recovery path. Teens and adults learn to manage stress, build self-esteem, and develop healthy routines. Medication-assisted recovery (MAR) is available for those struggling with opioids or alcohol, offering medication and therapy together for more effective, lasting recovery.Breaking Down Barriers to CareClients live at home while attending treatment at Aiken Center, creating a balance between structure and daily life.
