About Sandstone Care Teen Center at Cascade Canyon
Sandstone Care Teen Center at Cascade Canyon provides addiction and mental health treatment for teens and young adults. Their teen and young adult center rests in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, with nature and trees all around. Sandstone incorporates their beautiful surroundings into evidence and strength-based treatment programs, using what’s around them to create connections with teens. Their unique CLICC (Commitment, Life Skills, Integrity, Connection, and Community) model finds the strengths of each client, and provides help in areas where it’s needed. Holistic and experiential therapies delve deeper into each teen or young adult, teaching the tools needed to hone their strengths and recover from mental health conditions, addictions, or both.
Sandstone Care believes in making real, genuine connections with each client they treat. This connection stems from honesty, compassion, and service, which they additionally apply to the families of those in treatment. To create these connections and make interpersonal discoveries, Sandstone Care uses more than only talk therapy. They go outside, enjoying their surroundings or making art projects while overseeing therapists make each activity as therapeutic as it is fun.
Sandstone’s teen center at Cascade Canyon focuses on the root of substance use, mental health issues, or both, treating the cause before the symptoms. Sandstone’s comprehensive treatment approach brings in the whole family, as they believe returning teens or young adults to an educated, supportive, and compassionate home is key to their lasting sobriety and success. Vocational and academic guidance are also key focuses of treatment, combining with Sandstone’s family care to create a treatment plan that’s fully comprehensive and catered to teens and young adults.
Experiential therapy brings teens and young adults out of the grips of addiction or mental illness. While forms of talk therapy are often important and helpful, Sandstone seeks to provide teens with memorable activities and a therapeutic release. This approach is notably beneficial for active teens and young adults who are always looking for fun–without addictive substances. Hikes, wilderness therapy, equine therapy, art and music therapy, and holistic therapies make healing a gratifying and fun task. Academic support keeps teens on track with school, guided by Sandstone’s on-site teachers. Older teens and young adults receive vocational guidance, helping them set and reach career goals. Sandstone Care seeks to nourish and support each aspect of teens and young adults, treating root causes of addiction to return them to their homes refreshed, hopeful, and driven to succeed.

This place has been wonderful to work with. The clients I have had go through this program have had great experiences and I will continue to recommend families to use this program. Not only is the clinical work great, the campus is breathtakingly beautiful. Sandstone Care is a rock solid program, provides clear communication to families, and gives teens an empathetic and healing environment to begin their recovery journey.
