About Sandstone Care Colorado Springs
Sandstone Care Colorado Springs treats drug and alcohol addiction and co-occurring mental health concerns in outpatient programs for adolescents ages 13-17 and young adults ages 18-30. They use evidence-based, age-specific care to address unique issues certain age groups face. Their levels of outpatient care include an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and a day treatment program with beautiful views of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado Springs, CO.
Sandstone Care has a 1:8 therapist-to-client ratio to provide personalized care for clients and their families. They address drug and alcohol addiction alongside co-occurring mental health conditions, including depression, trauma, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), bipolar disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and borderline personality disorder (BPD). Treatment in each level of care includes 1:1 therapy, group therapy, group activities and psychoeducation, and family therapy with multi-family groups and individual family therapy.
Sandstone Care Mental Health’s day treatment program includes 5 hours of daily therapy, 5 days a week. It typically lasts 2-4 weeks, depending on each client’s needs. After day treatment, clients are encouraged to attend their intensive outpatient program (IOP), which includes around 12 hours of weekly treatment, 3-4 days a week. Adolescents and young adults receive academic and vocational support with a dedicated advisor helping them with school, job pursuits, and discovering which career aligns with their goals. Sandstone Care uses medication-assisted treatment as needed to manage mental health conditions.
Sandstone Care’s licensed clinicians, medical providers, therapists, and academic support staff collaborate with parents and loved ones throughout treatment. Families can engage in weekly multi-family groups to support and learn from others. Individual family therapy takes place biweekly, helping families learn more about addiction and mental health disorders, recovery, boundary setting, and emotional expression. After treatment, clients join a strong alumni community that meets regularly and offers connections to community resources.
