Newport Academy Maryland

Newport Academy’s Maryland outpatient center supports teens ages 12–18 who are struggling with substance use, depression, anxiety, and social challenges. Their program extends beyond individual care to involve the entire family, offering on-site family therapy and connecting parents with community support resources. Through an integrated, evidence-based approach, Newport Academy prepares teens for healthier, more confident futures. A Team-Based Approach to Care Newport Academy collaborates closely with each teen’s existing support network to strengthen their overall foundation. Academic assistance is available to help students stay on track, with tutoring and peer support woven into the program. Teens attend outpatient sessions at the Rockville location after school, where afternoons include individual counseling, group therapy, family sessions, and hands-on experiential therapies designed to reinforce growth and resilience. Engaging Experiences That Inspire Growth The program incorporates outdoor activities and recreational experiences to promote healing and connection. Teens may participate in city outings and nearby adventures, while on-site amenities include a game room, art and music studios, and private therapy spaces. Depending on the season, activities such as hiking, rock climbing, and kayaking provide healthy outlets for stress and opportunities to build confidence. Family-Centered Healing Attachment-based family therapy plays a central role in treatment, helping rebuild trust and strengthen relationships between teens and their parents. Families receive education on mental health and substance use, empowering them to better understand behaviors and support recovery. Through comprehensive assessments and personalized therapy, teens gain insight into triggers and learn practical strategies for lasting change. The Rockville center offers a welcoming, comfortable setting where adolescents are treated with dignity, privacy, and respect. Preparing Teens for Long-Term Success Beyond symptom management, Newport Academy focuses on equipping teens with life skills that extend well past outpatient care. Through goal setting, emotional regulation training, and peer connection, adolescents develop tools to navigate academic, social, and personal challenges. By fostering accountability, self-awareness, and healthy coping strategies, the program lays a strong foundation for sustained growth and long-term well-being.
