Embark Behavioral Health in Greeley, Colorado

During residential treatment at our Colorado center, adolescents and teens will live at our beautiful homelike program and participate in a schedule of activities centered around treating mental health conditions and healing. The benefit of residential care is that it is affordable, makes it easy for adolescents and teens to jump back into life at home, and it is frequently reimbursed by insurance.

The main differences between our residential treatment in Colorado and a typical inpatient treatment program are the treatment environment and length of stay. Our beautiful location in Greeley provides adolescents and teens with residential treatment in a healing, nurturing setting and a schedule that mirrors home life but with therapy mixed in throughout the day. Inpatient treatment usually takes place in a hospital environment. Our facility also provides a longer treatment time, lasting around 90 days on average compared to an inpatient hospitalization stay that often lasts for several days. 

The length of treatment differs for each adolescent and teen, but on average, residential treatment at our Colorado center lasts around 90 days. 

Adolescents and teens from all over the United States can come to our Colorado facility for the intensive 24-hour care it can provide for a wide range of mental health issues. For youths who have safety issues or a lack of support at home or who need a high level of care after an inpatient hospitalization or outpatient treatment, our residential treatment center can be a good option. 

Our residential treatment is necessary when your adolescent or teen’s mental health needs are too great for outpatient care or when they’re stepping down in treatment intensity, for example from an inpatient hospitalization program. Residential care can also be a good option if someone feels unsafe at home or is trying to break out of a negative daily routine. 

It can be hard for adolescents and teens to think about or accept going to a residential treatment center to address their difficult mental health issues. Help motivate your child to embrace this type of treatment by asking open-ended questions about their situation and how this experience could improve it. Reassure them you’ll provide support by participating in family therapy during their stay and maintaining regular communication with them while they’re at the facility.
