What families are saying
From our Google Profile
Our daughter came home nearly two and a half months ago after completing 75 days at Roots Renewal Ranch. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Roots Renewal Ranch.
Megan B.
My daughter was there for 70 days and the staff treated her with great care. She bonded with her counselor and enjoyed the activities. She loved the horses and other animals on site as well. The family weekend was amazing! I highly recommend Roots!

This is a place of healing for both children and parents. The support system is beyond expectations. What Roots did for our family could never be repaid. We thought we had lost our child forever; however, Roots brought our little girl back to us. It’s a scary feeling for any parent, but Roots is a safe place, and you’ll see positive transformations in the long run.

Roots is a wonderful place. The staff is amazing and they went above and beyond to help my granddaughter. They teach the girls self love and confidence. I would definitely recommend them for anyone who needs help for themselves or their loved ones.
Kathy H.
I always tell people, if it weren’t for roots, I probably would not be here today. I would not be the strong person I have become. Roots gave me a home when I felt I didn’t have a home. They taught me how to stand up for myself when I had been pushed down my entire life.

Weekly therapy gets one hour or more. Roots supports the hours around it
Weekly therapy can leave too much of the week untouched. The hard part often starts after the appointment ends.
At Roots Renewal Ranch, your daughter lives in a girls-only residential program in Argyle, Texas. Her day includes therapy and school. Medical support is on site.
Phone-free time gives her distance from the people and habits that might pull her back. Staff are present outside the therapy room too, so support is there during the parts of the day when outpatient care or IOP has not been enough.
A short tour around the facility
Ranch routines turn therapy into daily practice
A teen can talk honestly in therapy and still struggle later that day. At Roots, our team can respond when coping skills are tested in the normal parts of the day.
- Therapy reaches the day: Our clinicians choose from ART, EMDR, DBT, CBT, family therapy, and somatic psychotherapy based on your daughter’s care plan.
- School remains active: Full-time teachers support academic work while your daughter stays connected to her education.
- Medical needs are watched closely: Your daughter has 24-hour nursing and medical professionals on site, with nurses present daily.
- The plan starts with evaluation: A full psychiatric and clinical evaluation is completed within 48 hours of arrival.
- Phone-free routines reduce the pull back home: Phones, laptops, and personal electronics are not allowed during the residential stay.
Your daughter is not left to turn one therapy conversation into a whole week of change by herself. Ranch routines give her repeated chances to practice, reset, and try again while support is close.
Her care plan starts with her real life
Your daughter’s first days at Roots include a full psychiatric and clinical evaluation. We look at the week she has been living before we build the plan.
- When trauma is shaping the week: Our clinicians use ART, EMDR, and somatic psychotherapy when those approaches match her clinical needs.
- When emotions are taking over: DBT and CBT give her practice when panic, conflict, shutdown, or impulsive choices start driving the day.
- When family trust needs repair: Family therapy gives parents and teens a structured place to work on communication, boundaries, and the return-home plan.
- When substance use is involved: We treat it inside the same plan. Phone-free days and ranch routines give her distance from access while she practices recovery.
We treat various mental health issues in teen girls
At Roots, we support teen girls dealing with concerns such as:
- trauma-related symptoms
- depression or anxiety
- self-harm concerns
- substance use
- emotional dysregulation
- family conflict or communication breakdowns
- school disruption connected to mental health
When more than one concern is happening at the same time, your daughter is not treated like a diagnosis list. Her care plan is shaped around what she is facing, what keeps pulling her back, and what she needs to practice before she comes home.
Care is planned around your family
Before admission planning starts, we shape the practical plan around your family. You know what we can verify now and what would happen if residential care is recommended.
- Family contact has a plan: Weekly family sessions, parent support, sibling support, approved visitation, and discharge planning keep treatment connected to home.
- School stays active: Girls may remain enrolled in their home campus through online learning platforms while receiving teacher-supported academic help.
- Payment gets separated from guesswork: If you plan to use insurance, we verify employer-based commercial insurance and many out-of-network benefits. Roots does not accept Medicaid or state-funded insurance, and your insurance company makes the final coverage decision.
- Travel is explained after the care question: If Roots is recommended and your family chooses to move forward, admissions explains what arrival in Texas would involve.
If insurance is not used or benefits do not apply, admissions explains private-pay information before your family moves forward.
