Child & Teen Mental Health Treatment in Poway, CA

Poway

Mental health treatment for children and teens ages 10–18

Our Poway mental health treatment center brings PRI Treatment Center’s care closer to families in North County San Diego, with programs for kids and teens ages 10–18. Programs here include partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) for teens, plus our ADHD Intensive Program, with neurodiversity-affirming care woven through every level of treatment.

Treatment at this center follows the same research-based approach as our La Jolla location, delivered by a team that takes the time to get to know each young person and family. The goal is treatment that’s clinically rigorous and deeply human, built around the whole person.
