Addiction Treatment for Girls
Inspirations Teen Rehab provides gender specific-teen
girls drug abuse treatment and girl’s behavior
therapy, in a nurturing and therapeutic environment.
Inspirations Teen Girl’s Addiction Treatment
Program provides opportunities for girls to
share their experiences in gender specific therapeutic
groups, where each girl can process female issues, experiences,
and perceptions relative to each teen’s life.
The number of teen girls using or abusing drugs and
alcohol is equal to teen boy’s drug use and drug
abuse. Girls are also smoking cigarettes as much as
boys. Yet, the issues girls bring to teen therapy and
teen drug abuse treatment are often different than as
with teenage boys.
Inspirations Teen Rehab for Girls also
provides gender specific High
School Education. Inspirations provides teen girls
education format, allowing for girls to focus more on
their studies and less on distractions from teen boys.
In providing gender specific education, Inspirations
Teen Rehab for Girls has witnessed a decline of girls
focus on appearance and perceptions of their appearance
from boys. Although it is necessary for girls and boys
to learn to interact appropriately with each other,
Inspirations limits their involvement to specific activities,
which are monitored and structured.
Inspirations Teen Rehab also provides tutoring, allowing
individual teens to improve in academic areas in which
the teen shows signs of struggle. Inspirations teen
addiction treatment center also provides “Online”
programs for additional program and academic opportunities,
including SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) preparation
and early college course classes.
Recent studies of adolescent girls and drug abuse, reveal
that girls use and abuse drugs for different reasons
than boys. According to the Office of National Drug
Control Policy (ONDP), a three-year study on women and
young girls (ages 8–22) from the National Center
on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) at Columbia
University revealed that girls and young women use substances
for reasons different than boys and young men. The study
also found that the signals and situations of higher
risk are different and that girls and young women are
more vulnerable to abuse and addiction: they get hooked
faster and suffer the consequences sooner than boys
and young men.
(National Center on Addiction and Substance
Abuse at Columbia University, the Formative Years: Pathways
to Substance Abuse Among Girls and Young Women Ages
8–22, February 2003)
According to the 2008 National Survey on Drug Use and
Health (NSDUH), approximately 42.9% of women ages 12
or older reported using an illicit drug at some point
in their lives. Approximately 12.2% of females ages
12 and older reported past year use of an illicit drug
and 6.3% reported past month use of an illicit drug.
(Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration).
However, males and females had similar rates of past
month non-medical use (abuse) of psychotherapeutic drugs
(2.6 and 2.4 percent, respectively), pain relievers
(2.0 and 1.8 percent), tranquilizers (0.7 and 0.8 percent),
stimulants (0.4 percent for both), methamphetamine (0.1
percent for both), and sedatives (0.1 percent for both).
