About Newport Academy Virginia
Newport Academy strives to empower teens and restore families. They provide a comprehensive approach that blends evidence-based and holistic therapies. Therapy is broken into 4 categories: clinical, experiential, spiritual, and academic. Newport’s robust range of therapies includes body image group, gender-specific therapy, 12-Step, Bowen’s family system theory, equine therapy, music and art therapy, horticulture, culinary arts, and yoga.
Patients begin treatment with an assessment to properly gauge their needs and treatment requirements. From there, a personalized care team that includes counselors, nurses, a psychiatrist, and dietician continues to meet the needs of each teen. Newport Academy uses attachment-based family therapy (ABFT) to help rebuild familial relationships. Individual and group therapy connect patients to themselves and their peers, building a support network that Newport also extends to families.
Newport Academy creates individualized treatment plans that include equine therapy, music and art, yoga, meditation, adventure therapy, and a host of evidence-based therapies. Horticulture therapy encourages teens to be outside and apply their skills to work in Newport’s gardens. They additionally provide outpatient programming and day schools for those who may need more flexibility. Their locations in Virginia keep teens close to nature, enhancing their care experience and privacy.
The program has a fully transferable high school curriculum, led by on-site teachers. Newport Academy provides individual tutoring, educational testing, and academic planning. Newport Academy in Virginia is located in a quiet residential neighborhood. The central location provides easy access to Washington DC and local attractions, fun for teens and their families. Newport’s campuses are also close to a 300-acre nature preserve along the Potomac River. During treatment, patients can enjoy a fitness center and outdoor lounge area.

Provider's Policy: We work with most major insurance companies, including both In-Network and out-of-network payers, to optimize access to care for families and teens affected by mental health issues.
Newport Academy’s Virginia 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.
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.
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 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.
In a calm residential neighborhood, Newport Academy’s Virginia locations house teens in gender-specific homes. Comfort and adventure are both elements of their locations, close to Washington DC and the Potomac River. Teens have access to a combined 1,100 acres of parks and nature preserves–plenty of space to enjoy the healing properties of nature. Historical attractions are also nearby, fun for teens and their families.

Newport Academy was able to give my daughter the tools to dig deep and look at the things she needed to look at. There’s no question we made the right decision.
