Adolescent Treatment Services

Your child is more than a diagnosis, and our programming goes far beyond simply fixing what’s been broken. Rather, our mission is to build on the inherent strength of each adolescent by identifying their gifts, reconnecting them with goals, healing their trauma, and helping them find purpose and passion that translates to positive impact.

Each resident receives an extensive assessment with psychological testing from our expert clinical team to determine the best course of treatment for lasting transformation.

The DBT Difference

Dialectical behavior therapy is a powerful tool for treating substance use and mental health difficulties — especially in adolescents. As such, it is a cornerstone of our treatment program.

At Stonewater, our entire team is DBT trained — not just our clinicians. Throughout treatment, the members of our supportive community help the adolescents in our care to master a subset of DBT skills focusing on mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.

These skills then help young men change their behaviors for the better: increasing individual choice for abstinence, developing positive family and social connections, establishing meaningful involvement in their own education, and learning to develop positive, healthy responses to stressors.

From Our Family to Yours

The Fikes family founded Stonewater Adolescent Recovery Center because we went through the experience of having an adolescent family member in crisis. We know how hard it is to face the disappointment, guilt, and helplessness of that scenario — and that it’s possible for everyone in the family to recover.

Today, we are proud to offer families clarity, comfort, and relief from the confusion of how best to treat your child. Watch our video to learn more about our story, and give us a call to start your own family’s journey of healing. If Stonewater isn’t right for you, we’ll help you to find a place that is.

When your family arrives at our peaceful, 65 acre campus, we hope you feel welcomed, secure, and assured. Located in the quaint and neighborly town of Oxford, Mississippi, Stonewater was built to be a safe and protective respite for our adolescents and families alike. Whether exploring our rolling hills, working out in the gym, or sitting by our peaceful lake, our residents are able to remove themselves from the environment and mindset of their substance use and mental health disorders, so they can return to their families — better.
