Beyond teen counseling in Boise – A comprehensive program for lasting change

At Avery’s House, we empower teens to take the reins of their recovery journey. While counseling forms the cornerstone of our approach, our services extend beyond that. Here are other ways we help troubled teens:

Family Involvement

  • Support from family members is a hallmark of successful treatment. That’s why we provide families with tools to help their loved ones cope with the complexities of everyday life. Our approach includes family therapy, teaching strategies for offering emotional support, and meticulous aftercare planning.

Medication Management

  • We understand that therapy alone might not meet the needs of every teen. That's why we offer a comprehensive medication management program. Our dedicated medical team works closely with each adolescent, evaluating and adjusting medication as necessary to ensure it complements their therapy.

Academic Support

  • At Avery’s House, our focus extends beyond treatment. We ensure your child stays on track academically during their stay with us, and we teach them the skills they need to succeed in the classroom once they return to school. Most notably, we help them learn to balance schoolwork with other responsibilities to prevent overwhelm.
