At BlueRock Behavioral Health in North Carolina, we understand that finding the right mental health treatment for your adolescent is one of the most important decisions you’ll make as a parent. Hidden in the natural environment of North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains, our 140-acre campus in Bat Cave provides a sanctuary where teens ages 12-17 can find their path to emotional wellness and personal growth.
A Unique Approach to Adolescent Mental Health
What sets BlueRock apart is our fundamental belief that trusting relationships drive meaningful change. Our relationship-based treatment model combines clinical expertise with adventure therapy, creating a unique healing environment that engages teens both emotionally and physically. This integrated approach allows us to connect with youth in ways traditional therapy alone often cannot achieve.
The serene mountain setting of our campus, located just 30 minutes from Asheville in North Carolina, provides the perfect backdrop for therapeutic growth. Here, away from the pressures and distractions of everyday life, teens can focus on their emotional health while developing essential life skills through structured support and guidance.
Meeting North Carolina’s Critical Need
Our program addresses a vital healthcare gap in Western North Carolina, where there is currently an estimated shortage of hundreds of residential beds for adolescents requiring mental health treatment. As experienced mental health professionals with over 70 years of combined experience, we recognized this critical need and created BlueRock as a solution that makes high-quality care accessible to all families in our community.
Evidence-Based Treatment in a Nurturing Environment
Our comprehensive treatment approach encompasses multiple facets of healing and growth. Individual therapy sessions are tailored to each teen’s specific needs, while group therapy builds crucial social skills and peer support networks. Family therapy sessions work to heal and strengthen family relationships, which we view as essential for lasting change. Our adventure therapy program makes unique use of our mountain setting, providing opportunities for personal growth through supervised challenges and achievements.
The academic component of our program, delivered through our accredited on-site school, ensures that teens stay on track with their education while focusing on their mental health. When needed, psychiatric services and medication management are integrated seamlessly into each student’s care plan. Throughout all of this, therapeutic recreational activities help build confidence and resilience in a natural, organic way.
Insurance and Accessibility
We believe that quality mental health care should be accessible to all families in North Carolina, regardless of socioeconomic status. BlueRock works with various insurance providers and offers multiple payment options to help make treatment affordable. Our team can help verify your insurance benefits and explain available financial arrangements, ensuring that families can focus on what matters most – their child’s healing journey.
