Newport Academy

About

At Newport Academy, we address the root causes of self-destructive behaviors, not just the symptoms. We guide teens, young adults, and their families to achieve long-term, sustainable healing by treating the underlying issues—such as trauma, depression, and anxiety—that catalyze substance abuse, eating disorders, and other co-occurring disorders. Incorporating clinical, experiential, and holistic modalities, our gender-specific treatment is family focused and results oriented. From a foundation of compassionate care, clinical expertise, and unconditional love, we nurture their physical, psychological, social, educational, and spiritual needs. Driven by our mission to empower individuals and restore families, our comprehensive approach supports young people ages 13-20 in building the self-understanding, connection, self-acceptance, and academic and life skills that allow them to find their place in the world.Newport Academy has assembled the best mental health leaders in the country to serve as the foundation for our unparalleled teen and young adult treatment centers. Our team includes psychiatrists, psychologists, family therapists, eating disorder therapists, nurse practitioners, counselors, equine therapists, art therapists, music therapists, adventure therapists, registered dietitians, nutritionists, teachers, and private tutors, with a wide range of degrees and experience. Our dynamic team of skilled clinicians provides a truly comprehensive, cutting-edge approach to individualized treatment. Versed in the latest therapeutic modalities for individuals, they are innovative professionals who collaborate to create customized treatment plans for each adolescent. Newport Academy’s doctors and psychiatrists, recognized experts in the field, are empathetic and caring individuals who see each teen and young adults as a unique and brilliant individual—not just a collection of symptoms. Our team also includes skilled and caring experiential therapists who guide individuals toward deeper self-awareness and freedom from old patterns; and academic experts who provide personalized education.Rather than an afterthought, as it is in many treatment programs, Newport Academy’s educational program is an essential aspect of our clinical model. Our educational program is fully accredited and provides enhanced tutoring within a therapeutic environment, with individualized educational plans. When teens and young adults return to their home school after completing treatment with us, they bring with them concrete study and organizational skills along with enhanced engagement. Our specialized curriculum is designed to close proficiency gaps and help students grow their strengths, while building executive functioning, time management, and motivation. Newport’s educational program also offers credit recovery options for students who have failed classes or missed pertinent instruction as a result of their mental health. We ensure that students stay on track with their education and their college and career goals while receiving the compassionate and comprehensive treatment they need to achieve long-term healing.
