Southern Peaks Regional Treatment Center

About Southern Peaks Regional Treatment Center – Cañon City, Colorado

Located in Canon City, Colorado, is the Southern Peaks Regional Treatment Center. This is a treatment center that works specifically with boys and girls aged 10 to 18. They offer care in a residential setting and through a day treatment program.

Children will work through the struggles that have been impacting their lives, whether they are mild to moderate or more complex in nature. This treatment facility works with children from all walks of life including those with a substance abuse disorder.

Many of the children here have experienced traumatic events in their lives. Often, this trauma may have been brought on by self destructive behaviors, post-traumatic stress disorder, abuse that is physical, violent, or sexual in nature, and other health challenges that are brought on because of traumatic experiences.

Southern Peaks Regional Treatment Center recognizes that children with severe, complex psychiatric struggles need intentional, evidence driven, supportive care. They also recognize that coexisting mental or behavioral health challenges can often be at play.

Along with their trauma informed, sensitive approach to care to address the complex layers a child might be struggling with, they also use person focused, clinical therapies. This is seen through approaches including trauma informed cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, and others.

There is also targeted addiction counseling for children with a coexisting substance abuse disorder.

The path to recovery should require comprehensive care, according to this treatment center’s approach. They use the interdisciplinary team approach, which weaves in assessments, treatment planning, and intervention strategies through the input of the child themselves, their family, and their medical team. Input can also be considered from a placing agency or a school system that has worked with the child.

Situated in the beautiful town of Canon City, children in this program will get to experience therapy through nature. Equine assisted therapy is available here. Children might also go on hikes, engage in meditation and yoga, and participate in a host of other recreational and physical activities.
