Embark Behavioral Health in Bend, Oregon
A Residential Treatment Center for Female Youths in Oregon

Our residential treatment center in Bend, Oregon, provides inpatient mental health treatment for preteen and teen girls, nonbinary individuals, and transgender females, struggling with behavioral health issues. Our treatment center's beautiful location provides a peaceful, serene setting for your family member to reflect and grow.

For youths who are struggling with issues like attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), borderline personality disorder (BPD), depression, self-harm, and other mental health issues, the earlier they’re diagnosed, the more effective residential treatment can be. Identifying those behaviors and symptoms early and getting help, including specialized inpatient treatment, can prevent further and more severe problems from developing later.

A Safe Place for Healing: High Standards of Treatment at Embark
Our residential program is dedicated to providing high standards of treatment to preteens and teens. According to those standards, we use the least restrictive practices possible to ensure young people don’t harm themselves or others while they work through serious mental health challenges. We never use mechanical restraints, such as straps that confine someone to a bed; chemical restraints, which are medications that can sedate someone or limit movement; or seclusion or solitary confinement.
Each quarter, the Oregon Children’s Care Licensing Program collects data on how programs in the state use restraints and involuntary seclusion. You can see our latest report below.
Bend, Oregon Treatment Center FAQ
During residential care at our Bend, Oregon, treatment center, youths maintain a shared schedule designed to help heal mental health issues. On a typical day, they’ll wake up and eat a healthy breakfast; do yoga or meditate; participate in a range of group and individual therapies; take part in therapeutic activities, like gardening and hiking; and wind down at night with a nutritious dinner and group support. This shared schedule provides 24 hours of care so preteen and teen girls can learn healthy ways of living and overcome difficult mental health issues.
The biggest difference between a typical inpatient treatment program and our program is the environment. While a typical inpatient facility has a hospitalization environment, our residential treatment center provides a nurturing, healing setting in beautiful Bend, Oregon, where youths can work through difficult mental health issues like BPD, OCD, ADHD, and depression.
The length of treatment differs for each preteen or teen, but on average, residential treatment at our Bend, Oregon, center lasts around 90 days.
Youths go to our Bend, Oregon, treatment center because of the intensive 24-hour residential care it provides for a wide range of mental health issues, such as self-harm, BPD, OCD, and ADHD. Our program can be a wonderful option for preteen and teen girls who have safety issues, lack support at home, or need a high level of care after inpatient hospitalization or outpatient treatment.
Residential care at our Bend, Oregon, treatment center can be necessary when a preteen or teen’s mental health needs are too great for an outpatient center or when they’re stepping down a level of care from a hospitalization program. It can also be an excellent option if someone feels unsafe at home or is trying to break out of a negative daily routine.
It can be hard for youths to think about or accept going to a residential treatment center to address their difficult mental health issues. Help motivate your preteen or teen 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.
