Residential Treatment for Female Adolescents

Our program provides a wide-range of therapies, academic programs and therapeutic activities for female children and teens who struggle to live in a family or community setting due to a persistence of symptoms over time and require a higher level of care. Patients in our program participate in individual, family and group therapy.

Throughout the treatment experience, we use evidence-based and proactive treatment approaches with patients and we include their families to achieve the best possible outcome, as well as develop an ongoing plan for success. We strive to help them realize their goals and return to their home environment.

Available services to help patients after they leave Palmetto Lowcountry Behavioral Health are identified and established well before their discharge date to help ensure a successful transition back into the community. Discharge planning begins as soon as a patient is admitted, and has the goal of returning the adolescent back into the community through the use of less restrictive environments that use community-based services.

Academic time is scheduled every day during residential treatment. A special education certified teacher is available to provide one-to-one instruction as well as complete course material. The learning program is designed to meet your child’s needs, whether she requires more instructional support, or is academically advanced. We will offer Honors and AP classes in all core content areas and residents will also have some of these options available to them through our elective courses that are offered.
