Adolescent Inpatient Treatment

Our adolescent unit at Valleywise Behavioral Health Center – Mesa provides specialized treatment for young patients in our care who are between 13- to 17-years-old.

We know this stage of life can be hard for teens. They tend to respond to difficult situations with challenging behavior. We use an innovative system, developed by Dr. Ross Greene, to teach them the skills to resolve disagreements in a healthy, collaborative way.

We want you to know that when your young loved one is in our care, they’re receiving help that will enable them to recover and grow into their best selves.

Adult Involuntary Treatment

If the court orders a family member to undergo an involuntary mental health evaluation and treatment, this will take place at either our Valleywise Behavioral Health Center – Phoenix or our Valleywise Behavioral Health Center – Mesa.

Having a loved one involuntarily confined can be frightening for you. Our team members will help your family through this difficult and confusing process. Rest assured, we treat all our patients with respect and compassion and will ensure they receive effective aftercare services during recovery.

Court proceedings take place in a specially designed mental health courtrooms in our Valleywise Behavioral Health Center – Mesa  and Valleywise Behavioral Health Center – Phoenix facilities.
