Opioid Addiction Treatment Program for Teens
Our residential program provides teens with a safe, supportive environment to step away from dangerous behaviors and begin the process of recovery. Surrounded by trained professionals and peers going through similar experiences, teens engage in therapy, education, and healing activities every day. The residential setting removes distractions and allows for intensive focus on sobriety.
Treatment begins with a comprehensive medical and psychological assessment. We evaluate physical health, mental health, substance use history, and personal goals to create a customized treatment plan. For teens who require detoxification, we ensure close medical monitoring to manage withdrawal symptoms safely and comfortably.
Throughout the program, teens gain insight into their addiction while learning new coping strategies and rebuilding their sense of self-worth. We emphasize community, responsibility, and personal growth, preparing each teen to re-enter daily life with confidence and resilience.


What is Opioid Use Disorder?
Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) in teens is a serious condition marked by the inability to stop using opioids despite harmful consequences. This can involve misuse of prescription pain medications like oxycodone or hydrocodone, or illicit substances like heroin or fentanyl. Because opioid addiction progresses rapidly, early treatment is essential to prevent long-term damage or overdose.
Opioids impact the brain’s reward system, making it difficult to stop without help—even when teens want to quit. Over time, they may develop a physical dependence that leads to withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and increased tolerance. This cycle can lead to dangerous behaviors and life-threatening situations if not properly treated.
At Silver State, we address both the physical and psychological effects of opioid use disorder. Our team combines medication-assisted support when needed with in-depth therapy to help teens break the cycle of addiction and regain control of their lives.
Signs and Symptoms of Opioid Addiction in Teens
Recognizing opioid addiction in teens can be challenging, especially when it’s hidden or misunderstood. Common behavioral signs include sudden secrecy, withdrawal from friends and family, lying, and loss of interest in school or hobbies. Teens may also show mood swings, aggression, or signs of depression and anxiety.
Physical symptoms often include drowsiness, slurred speech, pinpoint pupils, constipation, and sudden weight loss. Teens might also experience frequent flu-like symptoms or complain of chronic pain as a way to seek more medication. In cases of withdrawal, signs may include nausea, sweating, tremors, and severe restlessness.
If you’re noticing any of these warning signs, it’s important to act quickly. At Silver State, we use comprehensive clinical assessments and compassionate care to understand each teen’s unique situation. We then build a recovery plan that addresses both immediate safety and long-term healing.


Why Individualized Plans Matter for Teens with OUD
Every teen’s experience with opioid addiction is different. That’s why we create individualized treatment plans based on each adolescent’s history, needs, and goals. Whether they’ve been using for weeks or years, our team meets them where they are and builds a clear, personalized path to recovery.
Teens may require different levels of clinical and emotional support depending on whether they are dealing with trauma, chronic pain, ADHD, depression, or anxiety. Our treatment plans incorporate therapeutic, medical, and educational components to address the full spectrum of care each teen needs.
We also focus heavily on preparing teens for life after treatment. With relapse prevention, coping skill development, and family involvement, we help each teen return home with a practical plan and strong support network. Individualized care leads to more meaningful progress—and a higher chance of long-term sobriety.
