Mental Health Professional
The Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections maintains Adobe Mountain School, a secure care facility which provides all youth with both evidence-based group and individual treatment that addresses criminogenic and non-criminogenic factors. In the group setting, youth encounter a shared therapeutic experience, a collaborative process of healing, and a positive problem-solving approach that allows them the opportunity to learn and practice specific skills that they can use for the rest of their lives. These skills involve identifying distorted thinking, modifying beliefs, relating to others in different ways, and changing behaviors. Youth also participate in individual therapy with licensed clinical therapists. Every youth receives an individual therapy session at least once every two weeks. Family therapy and support are also provided whenever feasible and appropriate.
