Parent Resources
If you’re exploring treatment options for your child, you don’t have to navigate this alone. At the Ohio Center for Adolescent Wellness (OHCAW), we offer supportive resources for both teens and their families, including education to help you understand what to expect and how to best support your child’s healing. Adults play a crucial role in supporting adolescents’ mental health by facilitating access to mental health screenings, resources, and services.
Our Parent Resources page provides guidance, educational materials, and answers to common questions about adolescent mental health and treatment. We are here to support you every step of the way. Our team is committed to helping your teen build a healthy, fulfilling future—and to ensuring your family feels informed, empowered, and supported throughout the process.
Our programs support adolescents who are navigating emotional, behavioral, or substance use challenges, offering compassionate care tailored to their unique needs. Adolescence is a critical period for mental health development, marked by increased vulnerability to mental health issues. This makes early access to health care and mental health services essential for positive outcomes, highlighting the importance of timely intervention.
With treatment options available in a supportive and therapeutic environment, OHCAW is dedicated to helping teens build the skills, confidence, and resilience they need to thrive. Our mission is to empower young people to understand their mental health, strengthen their coping abilities with guidance from mental health professionals, and move forward with stability and hope.
We recognize how overwhelming it can be for families to seek the right support for their teens. At OHCAW, we are committed to walking alongside families throughout the healing process, ensuring that teens and their loved ones feel supported every step of the way. Early intervention is crucial to prevent more severe mental health issues as they grow older. The Ohio Center for Adolescent Wellness accepts a variety of insurance plans, and we encourage families to verify their coverage as they begin their treatment journey.
