Harbor Point Behavioral Health Center provides residential care for youth ages 11-17 facing emotional, behavioral, or psychiatric disorders. Located in Portsmouth, Virginia, programs are separated by gender and include specialized tracks for trauma, self-harm, and sexually reactive behavior. They accept TRICARE, Medicaid, and Medicare, and offer support for families of military personnel. Stays typically last 6 to 9 months, with a separate 90-day diagnostic track. Discover Strength Through Treatment Treatment is guided by a trauma-informed approach using evidence-based therapies like dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing. Each child receives a personalized plan that includes individual, group, and family therapy. Recreation, expressive arts, and skill-building groups help youth heal, learn healthy coping skills, and build confidence for life beyond treatment. Live Where Learning and Healing Connect Youth live in a structured setting with 24-hour nursing care, regular meals, and education tailored to their needs. The facility includes a full school, rock climbing wall, yoga and Zumba classes, and music and art programs. Outings like college tours and museum visits help build real-world experience. Families are involved throughout, and staff help youth plan for a safe, supported return home.
