This approach has been recognized by the National Institute of Health as the most effective approach to dealing with the targeted population of adolescents we enroll. We teach the relationship of one’s perspective of the world, self-talk, and how it relates to our emotions, feelings and ultimately our choices in life. This gives our students the self-efficacy and opportunity to change their lives.

Gladstone, OR 97027
Provides residential services to troubled youth, ages 12 to 17. The staff of Northwest has shown itself to be successful with those more “difficult to treat” — especially those with a dual diagnosis who require a secure setting for their care. The goal of Northwest’s adolescent treatment program is simple: to make kids well so that they can have a meaningful and satisfying life. To achieve their own unique level of greatness. That takes patience, compassion, discipline, and understanding. Along with competent professionals, it also takes a diligent parent. Working together, there is hope.
