According to statistics provided by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, up to 43% of teenagers have experienced at least one traumatic event in their lifetime. On average, 15% of girls and 6% of boys who have suffered through trauma develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which Clearfork Academy's team defines as a distinct mental health diagnosis characterized by symptoms that last for more than four weeks.
Clearfork Academy adds that teens are particularly susceptible to the impacts of both trauma and PTSD. Unresolved trauma can result in chronically elevated cortisol levels that disrupt naturally fluctuating hormone levels in the teenage body, leading to physical and psychological symptoms that may place the individual at risk of developing additional mental disorders, like depression and anxiety, and health disorders, including heart and autoimmune diseases. However, because most teenagers have underdeveloped communication skills, they may be unable to verbalize their experiences, often necessitating professional treatment designed specifically for adolescents.
Clearfork Academy offers such treatments as part of its recovery programs, providing trauma-informed care to help teenagers address the root of their trauma and develop healthy coping skills.
Patients enrolled in these treatment programs may receive a combination of evidence-based therapies, including eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which uses bilateral stimulation to help the brain process emotional distress; cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which addresses and reframes negative thinking patterns; and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), which focuses on emotional regulation and resilience.
Additionally, patients will have the opportunity to participate in group therapy sessions to connect with other peers who have experienced trauma.
Clearfork Academy also offers family therapy to help households strengthen communication and develop a more supportive home environment for the patient. All clinical treatments is complemented by recreational therapies and faith-based treatments for holistic care.
