Diagnosis and Treatment for Adolescents and Young Adults
Diagnosis and Treatment for Adolescents and Young Adults
We create hope by providing a personalized and clear path to wellness.
Comprehensive, One-on-One Care for Unique Circumstances
At J. Flowers Health Institute, we specialize in identifying the root causes behind behavioral, emotional, academic, social, vocational, and functional challenges in adolescents and young adults. Our approach is highly individualized—designed to support each client through a fully customized experience that goes far beyond traditional group therapy.
We use a multidisciplinary blend of scientific, psychological, medical, and social assessments to clarify complex diagnostic questions and provide actionable insights that support long-term success in life, school, and beyond.
Young clients are welcomed into a supportive, private setting where they are given time to stabilize before beginning their evaluation. From there, we conduct an in-depth, one-on-one diagnostic process that unfolds over several weeks—not just a few hours—ensuring that every facet of the individual’s life and health is thoroughly understood.
Every evaluation is tailored. Every conversation is confidential. Every care plan is built around one person: your child.
