At Portum Behavioral Health, our Adolescent Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program provides structured, evidence-based treatment for teens aged 13–18 who are managing mental health or co-occurring substance use challenges.

THERAPIES
Our evidence-based therapies are tailored to meet your unique needs and goals. From individual to group approaches, these proven methods empower lasting change, build resilience, and support your journey toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
Teletherapy, also known as online therapy or virtual therapy, delivers professional mental health care through secure video sessions. Research shows virtual therapy can be as effective as in-person treatment, particularly for adolescents who are often comfortable with digital communication. Our platform uses HIPAA-compliant technology to ensure confidential, high-quality care that meets the same standards as traditional therapy.
Participants require a reliable internet connection and access to a private space with a computer, tablet, or smartphone equipped with video capabilities. Our team provides detailed setup guidance and technical support to ensure a smooth experience.
Program length is individualized based on each teen’s progress and needs, typically ranging from 8 to 10 weeks. Our clinical team regularly assesses progress and adjusts treatment duration to ensure optimal outcomes.
Our program supports teens managing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use concerns, and other mental health challenges. We create personalized treatment plans that address each teen’s specific needs and goals.
We utilize interactive digital tools, small group sizes, and a variety of activities to keep teens actively engaged. Our specialized adolescent mental health professionals are trained in virtual engagement techniques that promote meaningful participation and connection.
Family involvement is crucial to the success of our program. Parents participate in regular family therapy sessions, receive progress updates, and learn strategies to support their teen’s recovery. We also provide parent education and support groups.
Our afternoon schedule (3-6 pm) is designed to minimize disruption to academic schedules. We coordinate with schools as needed and help teens develop effective time management strategies to balance treatment with their academic responsibilities.
