Whether teens are working through substance use, anxiety, depression, or trauma, holistic therapies help them feel more in control and connected to themselves as they heal.
Holistic therapies also help teens unlock subconscious blocks they cannot express with words and build real-life coping skills to carry with them long after they leave.
Addiction and mental health struggles often go hand-in-hand. Most teens we support also deal with anxiety, depression, trauma, or trouble managing their emotions. Holistic therapy helps them address what’s at the root of their unhealthy processing, not just surface-level behaviors.
For teens with a history of trauma, holistic therapies offer a safe, nonverbal way to begin healing. Holistic therapies support emotional regulation in ways that don’t rely on verbal processing alone.
When we combine individual therapy with holistic practices, teens get tools they can use every day to:
Many teens arrive feeling disconnected from themselves—physically and emotionally. Holistic therapy helps restore a sense of safety and awareness, making it easier to show up fully in treatment and begin building lasting change.
When teens feel more in control and connected to themselves, they’re better able to engage in therapy, focus in school, and build healthier relationships.
Every teen is different, so our holistic offerings are personalized to meet your teen where they’re at. Therapies are guided by certified professionals and thoughtfully built into your teen’s daily treatment schedule.
We use approaches supported by research in teen mental health, addiction recovery, and trauma care.
Our holistic therapy offerings include:
Mindfulness & Meditation
Helps your teen slow down, notice their thoughts, and manage stress in the moment.
Yoga & Movement Therapy
Builds body awareness and emotional balance through movement and breathing.
Art Therapy
Art Therapy helps you express emotions creatively and supports healing through self-discovery.
Music Therapy
Music Therapy helps reduce stress, lift your mood, and connect with emotions through rhythm and sound.
Nutrition Support
Supports healthy eating habits that improve energy, focus, and mood—especially important in recovery.
Nature-Based Activities
Our 32-acre mountain setting gives teens space to reconnect with nature and find moments of peace.
Many holistic therapies take place in small groups, helping teens rebuild trust and connect with peers in healthy ways.
Holistic therapy is an integral part of each teen’s daily schedule at Never Alone. From morning yoga to afternoon art sessions and evening meditation, these practices are thoughtfully combined with therapy, academics, and group support.
As your teen engages in holistic therapies, you may notice positive changes in their mood and behavior. These therapies often encourage deeper progress in one-on-one sessions, academics, and family involvement.
The benefits of holistic therapy extend beyond treatment. Teens leave with lifelong tools to manage stress, stay balanced, and support their emotional and mental health in real-world situations.
At Never Alone, holistic therapy supports teens facing mental health challenges, substance use, or both. Our goal is to help them find calm, clarity, and connection as they work toward lasting change.
