Addiction is a family disease and the family must be involved in the treatment process if treatment is to be optimized. Family involvement at Muir Wood’s residential teen rehab is a core component of treatment and family participation is mandatory. This includes weekly individual family therapy sessions with parents, teens, and a clinician and a commitment from parents to attend meetings in the community. For families that are out of the area and cannot attend weekly individual family therapy, Muir Wood utilizes Zoom to conduct remote sessions. At Muir Wood, we do everything possible to involve the parents in the treatment program to help insure recovery for both the individual teen and family system.
