At Portum Behavioral Health, we provide care for a wide range of mental health and co-occurring disorders. From anxiety and depression to substance use and trauma-related conditions, our team offers personalized treatment to support healing and recovery.

Did you know that 1 in 5 adolescents worldwide experience mental health conditions, with nearly 50% of adult mental health disorders starting by the mid-teens?

At Portum Behavioral Health, we understand that mental health challenges can deeply affect a teen’s daily life, emotions, and relationships. That’s why we offer compassionate, evidence-based care for a range of mental health conditions. Our team works closely with each client to create a personalized treatment plan, supporting them on their journey toward recovery and emotional well-being.

Here are some of the mental health conditions we treat:

Anxiety Disorders: Adolescents who struggle with overwhelming anxiety that disrupts their ability to function in daily life.
Depression: Adolescents dealing with persistent sadness, hopelessness, or a lack of motivation.
Mood Disorders: Adolescents experiencing extreme mood swings, irritability, or emotional instability.
Behavioral Issues: Adolescents exhibiting aggression, defiance, or self-harm behaviors.
Trauma & PTSD: Adolescents who have experienced trauma and are struggling with the lasting effects of post-traumatic stress disorder.

We believe that with the right support, teens can overcome these challenges and grow into stronger, more resilient individuals. We’re here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

Did you know that around 8.5% of adolescents aged 12 to 17 in the U.S. have experienced a substance use disorder, which translates to around 2.2 million teens?

At Portum Behavioral Health, we understand the serious impact substance use can have on a teen’s development and overall well-being. Adolescence is a critical time when casual experimentation with substances can quickly escalate into chronic misuse or addiction. However, with early identification and support, teens are more likely to achieve successful treatment outcomes, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and sustain long-term recovery.

Here are some of the substance use disorders we treat:

Alcohol Use Disorder: Helping adolescents break free from the cycle of alcohol misuse.
Nicotine Use Disorder (including vaping): Addressing the growing trend of nicotine addiction through vaping.
Cannabis Use Disorder: Supporting adolescents in managing the impact of cannabis use and its associated challenges.
Prescription Drug Abuse: Treating misuse of prescription medications, which can pose serious health risks.

Early intervention can make all the difference. By addressing substance use before it worsens, we help teens regain control of their lives, improve their mental and physical health, and build stronger relationships.

Adolescence is a critical time for brain development, making teens particularly vulnerable to both mental health challenges and substance use disorders. At Portum Behavioral Health, we take an integrated approach to treating co-occurring conditions, addressing both mental health and substance abuse simultaneously. This comprehensive care ensures that all aspects of a teen’s well-being are treated, providing a more effective path to recovery.

Here are some examples of the co-occurring conditions we treat:

Anxiety and Substance Abuse: Adolescents using substances to cope with overwhelming anxiety.
Depression and Alcohol/Cannabis Abuse: Adolescents struggling with depression and using alcohol or cannabis to self-medicate.
Mood Disorders and Prescription Drug Misuse: Adolescents with mood instability who also misuse prescription medications.
Trauma & PTSD with Substance Abuse: Adolescents with unresolved trauma who turn to substances to numb emotional pain.

By treating both conditions at the same time, we help teens regain emotional balance, reduce their reliance on substances, and develop healthier coping skills.
