About Seven 12 House – Ames

Youth Shelter Services (YSS) is a mental health and addiction treatment center offering inpatient and outpatient programs for youth in Ames, Iowa. They provide community resources, psychiatric services, addiction treatment programs, and sober living homes.

YSS addresses adolescent addiction and mental health-related problems for youth aged 12 to 18. The individualized program includes clinical assessments and treatment planning for substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health disorders, residential treatment, 12-step programs, counseling, peer support programs, education, SAT preparation, and family support in a home-like atmosphere.

Using a whole-person approach, assessments at YSS help to evaluate patients for substance use disorders and/or co-occurring mental health conditions, like anxiety or depression. Treatment plans use a range of evidence-based behavioral therapies, including individual counseling and group therapy.

The YSS adolescent program is a 15-bed program for substance use and co-occurring disorders for youth. Using a trauma-informed approach, clinicians support patients in getting to the root of their addiction and support enhancing overall mental and physical health. Therapies involve cognitive behavioral therapy, Systems Training for Emotional Predictability and Problem Solving (STEPPS), trauma therapy, psychoeducation to help with relapse prevention and enhance coping skills, and multidimensional family therapy.

YSS offers students the ability to continue education within the IOWA school district while in residential treatment. Using tutors or state-registered teachers, students are supported with classwork and exam preparation, like SAT or ACT. Counselors also support students reintegrating into school once treatment is completed.

YSS acknowledges that recovery doesn’t end once treatment is complete – it is a lifelong journey. Following treatment, counselors support program participants to reintegrate into the community and continue their journey in recovery.

YSS accepts private insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, and self-pay, and also has financial assistance and sliding scale payments available.
