You Have Questions... We have answers

  • Q.I know that this is what my child needs, but will he ever forgive me for doing it?A. Your child is most likely crying out for help with his actions. Typically, after about two weeks. Those feelings subside and the work begins. Family Therapy that is offered at most of the programs will help with this relationship and make it better and stronger than ever.
  • Q. I read on the website that these schools offer family therapy, but how does that happen when the school is so far away?A. You will participate in the family therapy by phone, and when you come for your family visits, you will then do face to face family therapy.
  • Q. Why are most of these programs in Utah?A. The original Residential Treatment Center was opened in Utah, and they have been improving their system ever since. There is an entire state agency devoted to overseeing and regulating these programs. The other reason is that in Utah, the legal age is 18, so you can force your child to get treatment until they are 18. Legal age varies by state but there are an increasingly high number of states where the legal age is 17 even if you are still financially and physically responsible for them until they are 18.
  • Q. Does my child have to go willingly?A. As long as your child is under the age of 18 and you have custody of your child, then your child does not have to go willingly. You can force them to go against their will for their benefit.
  • Q. If my child won't go willingly, how do I get them there?A. There are teen transport companies we contract with that are highly trained and they will come to your home and pick up your child. There job is to escort your child there safely! This takes away the worry and the fighting. There is an additional fee for this service.
  • Q. Does insurance cover the cost of treatment or boarding?A. Insurance plans vary so much that there is not a solid answer. You can find out what your coverage is by calling them directly and asking about your in-patient mental health benefits. In order for coverage, it has to be medically necessary, based on diagnosis and most insurance companies require a pre-authorization.
