Sandstone Care

Certified Treatment Centers For Addiction and Mental Health helping teens, young adults, and their families.

Sandstone Care specializes in youth addiction & substance abuse treatment in Colorado, Maryland, Virginia, the DC area, and virtually online. We believe in providing an evidence-based, integrated treatment program for adolescents and young adults that is customized for the needs of each individual client. We apply today’s most effective treatment methods that not only address any teenage substance abuse issues but also treat any underlying mental health conditions. We’ve found that with a younger population, it is critical to focus on the client’s entire ecosystem, so we require the involvement of the full community, including interactive sessions with family members, peers, mentors, teachers, and coaches.

Sports can be one of the best things for your mental health, and one of the places mental health matters most.

We loved being part of the Super Girl Surf Festival in Virginia Beach and getting to watch so many incredible athletes do what they do best.

A huge shoutout to our Virginia outpatient teams and Business Development reps who showed up, met with the community, and helped make connecting over this weekend possible!

In August, Crownsville RTC Site Director Amber Berkhart presented to behavioral health professionals working in academic settings. Amber taught practical strategies for supporting students who may be struggling and offered guidance on navigating difficult conversations with parents and making recommendations confidently.

As Amber put it:

“Bridging the gap between caregivers, education systems, and treatment providers is critical when intervening with adolescents. As adults, it's our job to guide teens in a way that supports healthy development — and sometimes the most subtle changes are the first sign something's wrong. That's why solid academic support systems are so vital: they give professionals the communication tools, behavioral cues, and referral pathways they need to direct families in the right direction."

Thank you to everyone who attended and engaged in this important conversation.

A teenager's treatment needs look different from an adult's.

That's why our programming is designed specifically for each age group, providing age-appropriate support, skill-building, and clinical care that meets people where they are.

Because treatment should fit the person, not the other way around.

No two people begin treatment from the same place. At Sandstone Care, the care they receive reflects that.

Our annual outcomes report found that patients who entered care with the highest levels of distress often continued treatment longer. By discharge, they had experienced the greatest overall reduction in symptoms and reached distress levels similar to patients who began with milder symptoms.

We’re teaching skills and coping strategies, yet many adolescents and young adults still struggle with motivation, distress tolerance, and real change.

Mental health challenges today require more than skill acquisition. Let’s bring DBT beyond the worksheet. Join us and deepen your approach.

Feeling nervous before a presentation is normal. But if fear of judgment, embarrassment, or social situations is holding you back, it may be more than shyness.

Our free, confidential Social Anxiety Test was developed by licensed clinical professionals to help you better understand what you're experiencing and determine whether it may be time to seek support. The quiz assesses common symptoms of social anxiety, including fear of being judged, avoidance of social situations, physical symptoms, and excessive worry.
