The need for teen mental health services in Scottsdale, AZ
In 2023, Mental Health America ranked Arizona low—49th of the 50 states—for overall mental health care. This ranking is due in part to the state’s high prevalence of teen mental illness and poor access to mental health care.
A mental health report released in October 2024 by the Arizona Department of Health Services concluded that the mental well-being of Arizona adolescents is declining, citing increases in suicidal ideation, anxiety, ADHD, depression, and unhealthy weight control behaviors among Arizona teens. In their surveys, nearly 4 in 10 adolescents reported poor mental health in the previous 30 days. Research shows that many factors contribute to this epidemic, including
- Genetics
- Emotional problems
- Poor parenting
- Behavioral problems
- Abuse
- Trauma
- Stress
More concerning, a 2024 report by the Arizona Alliance for Adolescent Health notes that 70% of teenagers in mental health crisis during the previous year had received no treatment. This increases their risk of having continued problems, including relationship and employment issues.

How do teens in residential treatment keep up in school?
Maintaining school progress is critically important for teens during treatment. An effective and comprehensive center will work with all residents to help them develop crucial academic skills while ensuring they keep up with all school assignments.
