“Normal” teenage experiences can be both difficult and challenging for any young person. Unfortunately, for some young women this normally trying time is further complicated by mental health issues and/or more extreme traumatic events such as separation from parents, physical abuse, eating disorders, sexual abuse, or teen pregnancy. Since they are not equipped with healthy ways to cope with the stressors in their life, these girls may engage in high-risk behaviors, self-harm, aggressive, defiant or oppositional behaviors, sexual promiscuity, and use drugs and/or alcohol. Our goal at Northcutt Residential Treatment Center is to break the negative cycle for these troubled girls — by providing a venue for quality care, treatment and education which promotes personal and interpersonal growth and safety — enabling them to make better, more responsible choices and to successfully transition to home or a less restrictive community environment. ♥ We understand ♥ We have experience ♥ We can help Who do we serve? ♥ Girls age 13-17 with severe emotional and behavioral issues, 12 year-olds will be considered on a case-by-case
