Who We Are

Roots Renewal Ranch is a mental health and substance use treatment center that specializes in the unique challenges faced by adolescent girls. Through a comprehensive, whole-child (biological-psychological-social-spiritual) approach, implemented in a safe, nurturing, and undistracted environment, individuals will journey through their life story, discover their core roots, create a loving sense of self, reconnect with family and community, build hope in a healthy and purposeful life, and develop a convicted belief that they are enough.

  • Commitment: Be all in
  • Safety: Emotional and physical
  • Integrity: Do the right thing
  • Transparency: We can’t address what we don’t know
  • Vulnerability: Own it
  • Trust: In self, each other, and the process
  • Service: Our greatest gift is serving others
  • Growth Mindset: We are always learning
  • Spiritual Growth: Faith in a higher power
  • Purposeful: Guidelines and program elements all have a purpose
  • Simplicity: Experience life and relationships without distractions

Our Vision

Our vision at Roots is to help cleanse, equip, empower, and renew the girls in our care so that they can reach their full potential. By doing this, we want them to realize they are strong enough to face any challenge and overcome anything they’re struggling with.

What We Treat

Through our strengths-based, trauma-informed care, we aim to identify and heal the underlying causes of substance use and mental health challenges, whether it be trauma, a physiological/medical concern, environmental issue, or complex relationship dynamics.

How We Treat

Substance use is a complex issue, and here at Roots, we believe in treating the whole child (and the whole family!), not just the symptoms. Through our strengths-based, trauma-informed care, we aim to identify and heal the underlying causes of substance use and mental health challenges, whether it be trauma, a physiological/medical concern, environmental issue, or complex relationship dynamics.

While at Roots, our clients will receive weekly individual counseling, daily group counseling with their peers, and time for journaling and clinical assignments, not to mention the services that come with our Family Program.

Our clinicians rely on the following evidence-based therapies and programs to address the needs of our clients and families:

  • Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)
  • Somatic psychotherapy
  • Harm reduction
  • SMART Recovery

Family Program

A principal guiding factor of Roots is to treat the whole child, which includes the family unit. With the understanding that substance use and mental health challenges create (and are often created from) difficult family dynamics, your family will receive the following services while your child is enrolled in our program:

  • Parent one-on-one sessions with child's therapist
  • Full family sessions once weekly
  • Individual check-ins with siblings as needed
  • Parent support groups
  • Parent education groups
  • Sibling support groups
  • Family Intensive Weekend (a one-time weekend event meant to inform, instruct, and inspire)

Trauma-Informed Care

Trauma-informed care is a way of thinking about and treating clients as whole individuals with life experiences that care providers may or may not be aware of. Trauma-informed care switches the focus from asking “What is wrong with this person?” to “What has happened to this person?”

Asking “What has happened to this person?” allows our care providers to think not just about what is happening with your daughter right now, in the short term, but also how previous experiences may impact her health and what she needs out of a treatment experience.

nuts and bolts of recovery

Our clinicians will use emotion-focused family therapy (EFFT) and structural family therapy throughout the course of the program. 

We also contract with local music therapists and art therapists in order to provide these treatments in a group setting. 

Our daily schedule is based on Dan Siegel's Healthy Mind Platter, a neurobiological concept that suggests humans need seven different types of "time" per day in order to function optimally. 

The goal is simple... ethical, effective, evidence-based care for our clients that leads them back to the core of who they are and equips them for life.

Continued Education at Roots

Your child’s education is very important to their development into a young adult and doesn’t stop when they enter treatment at Roots. We have a full-time teacher on staff, as well as three certified teachers that provide support in a number of different academic areas. During continued education at Roots, your child will:

  • Remain enrolled in home campus using district online learning platforms
  • Receive enough assignments weekly per class to show mastery
  • Learn from certified teachers on staff (including Special Education and ESL classes)
  • Learn future-focused skills that work toward higher education goals
  • Receive 2.5 hours of classroom time per day, 1-2 hours for homework

Your child’s advisor will send weekly progress updates to their parents and schools. Virtual Learning Academy and credit recovery are also available through the Texas Virtual School Network (TXVSN). Our education program at Roots Renewal Ranch is compliant with all Texas attendance laws regarding inpatient facilities.

Real Results

Compassionate approaches to treatment that provide real results.

The treatment methods we use at Roots Renewal Ranch are evidence-based and individually tailored to address the unique problems faced by adolescent girls. The numbers show that the need for these services is more important now than it’s ever been.
