Evolve Teen Treatment – Mount Helix

At Evolve Mount Helix, teens ages 12–17 find a place to be understood and supported while working through mental health, substance use, or behavioral challenges. With space for only six teens at a time, care is never crowded. Stays usually last 45–60 days and include round-the-clock supervision, regular therapy sessions, and support from psychiatry and nursing staff. Beyond traditional therapies, teens get to explore equine therapy, art, music, yoga, surfing, hiking, and more.Tailor Treatment to Match Each Teen’s JourneyAt Evolve, they give teens the tools and insights to change their lives. Every teen’s plan is built around their specific needs, combining psychiatry with therapies like DBT, CBT, and motivational interviewing. This mix is intentional, layered, and flexible, giving teens exactly what they need. Families are part of the process too, learning the same skills so home becomes a place of understanding, not conflict. By weaving together these approaches, Evolve helps teens carry a sense of hope long after treatment ends.Give Teens Room to Rest, Play, and HealIn the quiet Mt.
