About Newport Academy Connecticut
Newport Academy is a residential healing center for teens ages 12-17 struggling with mental health issues, eating disorders, trauma, and substance abuse. Newport Academy strives to empower teens and restore families. They provide a comprehensive approach that blends evidence-based and holistic therapies, broken into 4 categories: clinical, experiential, spiritual, and academic.

Gender-Specific And Comprehensive
Newport Academy’s gender-specific teen rehab centers address the differences and needs of males and females. Each patient receives a tailored treatment plan, backed by the expertise of doctors, psychiatrists, family therapist, nurses, and a dietician. Adventure therapies include hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, and more depending on location and season. Newport Academy includes family in the healing process too, inviting them to be as involved as possible. Family therapy and support for parents complements the treatment their teen receives.
Convenient, Comfortable Locations

Their campus rests on 120 acres, offering privacy and a chance to really get away from the triggers of the outside world. Patients can enjoy streams, foliage, and walking trails on the property. Teens share a room with a roommate, sharing one private bathroom between the two. The campus also features on-site gardens, art therapy space, music rooms, 2 gyms, and shared outdoor space for yoga and meditation. Common areas in each gender-specific home provide a comfortable and safe environment for group therapy, relaxing, or talking with other peers.
On-Site Academics
Newport Academy keeps teens on track with their school, offering tutoring and individualized schooling programs.

More Newport Healthcare Locations
individualized and evidence-based
Newport Academy’s Connecticut locations house teens in gender-specific homes. They treat each teen with the individualized care they need and deserve–no two teens are alike, and neither is their treatment. Newport’s team of professionals work to create custom care, using evidence-based methods with proven results and trackable, successful outcomes. No two families are alike either, making their care plan just as personal.
academic support
Teens continue school in treatment, led by Newport Academy’s accredited teachers. Just like their therapeutic care, teens receive an individualized academic plan, with 1-1 tutoring and peer support. This all begins in the same supportive and safe environment of treatment, with all academics on site and led by Newport’s teaching staff. Parents meet with teachers in parent-teacher meetings, allowing for connections and engagement between everyone involved.
family-wide healing
Newport Academy extends healing to the whole family. Master-level therapists lead attachment-based family therapy to help teens and their parents heal strained relationships and make healthy ones. Educational sessions support parents in learning more about addiction and mental health, helping them become the supportive allies they strive to be. Together, teens and their families learn how to move forward with hope and cope with challenges as they come.
recover in the countryside
Set on 120 acres, Newport Academy’s gender-specific homes in Connecticut invite teens to completely refocus on health and recovery.

I was a client of the male CT campus from Feb-May of 2020. It is safe to say that Newport changed my life.I have been struggling with my mental health since eighth grade, and unfortunately, it came to the point where I was in the hospital for the third time in the span of ten months. At that point, I had no motivation to do anything, and could not imagine a future. I struggled with suicidal ideation every day, as well as self-harm, flashbacks, anxiety, and depression.After 37 days at the hospital, I was at my lowest point of all time. None of it was working and I felt hopeless that it would never get better. That was when I transferred to Newport.The amount of love, support, and care I received there was immeasurable. Right away, I noticed that I was treated like a human and not a "sick kid" like I was in the hospital. I could tell that staff genuinely WANTED to be there - it wasn't just a job for them. The Care Coordinators are some of the best people I've ever met and I miss them every day.Of course, it was rough sometimes, but that's because it's residential. During the course of my stay, however, my mindset started to change, even though I had never thought it would. I slowly started to "do the work," and was able to create goals and imagine a future.The number of positive results I have seen during and even after my stay says everything. I am so grateful that I went to NP and cherish the moments that I did not have before it. I wake up every morning and WANT TO BE ALIVE. This had not been the case for a long, long time.I was the one who did the work, but the love I felt all around me was the reason why I found it possible. The encouragement that I received helped so much in terms of finding that hope again.Recovery is not a one-size-fits-all process, and Newport understands that. They work with you and dig down to the roots of behaviors and illness instead of skim the surface, which creates the long-lasting results. I am forever grateful to NPA.
