About New Directions for Young Adults

New Directions for Young Adults in Deerfield Beach, Florida, is an accredited facility that specializes in providing mental and behavioral healthcare to young people aged 17 to 30. 

Support extends to neurodiverse individuals, including those on the autistic spectrum or with learning difficulties. Private pay is accepted while case management services can help you explore your insurance options and benefits during the admissions process.

Outpatient Therapeutic Programming in Broward County

Several treatment options are available here, which focus on mental and behavioral support, including addiction treatment services and referrals as needed. You may begin with the partial hospitalization program (PHP), which provides intensive care, as well as extensive therapeutic support, without requiring clients to stay overnight. 

You’ll benefit from structured support, involving therapy and life skills training sessions. This is an ideal option, in particular, for anyone transitioning from a higher level of care like residential programming or detox.

PHP takes place five days a week, for a minimum of 20 hours. Meanwhile, the intensive outpatient program (IOP) is more flexible, with participants able to comfortably balance work or study commitments alongside recovery. This program is ideal for individuals who favor a holistic approach to care, with scheduling combining educational, life skills, and therapeutic sessions across 3-hour sessions, 3 times a week.

Support is also provided to help individuals with financial and social skills, as well as nurturing and maintaining healthy relationships.

Guiding You Through Independence

The focus here is on supporting young people as they navigate their growing, newfound independence, while ‘addressing underlying mental health and addiction concerns.’

Describing their approach, the facility’s clinicians have shared that they “believe in integrating clinical, psychiatric, and real-world support to ensure comprehensive, lasting change for the young adults we serve.”

New Directions continues to be a place of growth for our daughter as the program continually accommodates her changing needs, which have become less and less due to all of the support and knowledge that she has gained for having been part of NDFYA!

New Directions has a comprehensive program that allows young adults to pursue independence with supports and allows families to rest easy knowing their young adults are taken care of using a combination of professionals and mentors. It is a good way to disrupt patterns developed by continuing to live at home.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Treatments

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

I wish we had found NDFYA sooner. The way their program is structured, it completely focuses on what sessions each client needs. Additionally, interactions within those sessions are customized to fit the specific needs of each client. The staff at NDFYA were able to help my son do things I never thought I'd see; most importantly having friends and carrying on full conversations with people. As our son grew, the focus of his treatment evolved to continue meeting him where he was at developmentally. We will be forever grateful for our time here.

Our son has found a place where he has made friends and is learning and using the skills he needs to function on a daily basis. This program has helped him gain confidence in himself and has given him the opportunity to grow at his own pace. The mentors and clinicians have been a monumental part of his success. The staff interact with the students at various points throughout their day and help to give them the support they need. We are very happy to have found a place that is nurturing and cares about the needs of the students.

Taylor's progress at New Directions has been exponentially greater than any of the other Programs we have tried. He is med compliant for the first time and is no longer isolating. I highly recommend New Directions here and have already done so in person many time. A good place with good people. The mentoring is a unique and very successful factor.

Finding a program for young adults that genuinely supports their journey towards independence is no easy task. After a year-long search, I finally came across New Directions for Young Adults (NDFYA), and I knew we had found the perfect fit. NDFYA offers a range of services, including meal planning, grocery shopping, interview preparation, vocational planning, time and financial management, and therapy. These comprehensive services have been instrumental in helping my daughter become more independent. She is now working and contributing towards her rent and bills, which is a huge milestone. The progress didn't happen overnight, but it is definitely visible and encouraging. The therapists, staff, and clinical director at NDFYA have been incredibly supportive and always available to provide assistance when needed. Their dedication and commitment have been a true gift to our entire family. I wanted to share this in case anyone else is searching for a program that can make a real difference. NDFYA has certainly been a blessing for us.

Dr. Kellen has been a consistent, respectful, and insightful therapist for our daughter. We very much appreciate his role in the organization and for our family.

My young adult has been here since autumn of 2023. Of all the many placements he has ever been in, this is the only one where he is actually making real progress - thanks to the exceptional staff and wonderful administration - educationally, socially, physically, mentally, emotionally, behaviorally, and vocationally. So many opportunities for growth here. We never have to worry about his safety or well being either; and any (rare) problems or issues are adeptly handled by the no nonsense staff, as my kid can be a “tough nut to crack”. But he loves it here and wants to stay while he works on achieving more independence, something that he’s never said before. Truly worth every dollar / sacrifice to send him here!

As we near the end of our student's first 6-months at New Directions for Young Adults, we are thankful for many positive changes we have seen in our neurodiverse son. 1. The most notable is seeing that the support he is receiving is helping him to better manage his emotional disregulation. His anger is triggered much less frequently and with less intensity. 2. He’s showing more independence as he’s learned to clean, grocery shop, and cook - even though we don’t always approve of his food choices. 3. The regular social opportunities have given him more confidence and helped him remain relaxed and emotionally regulated when he’s in a social setting. 4. We’ve seen the value of having a team work with our young adult on a daily basis yet giving him space and time to grow and make his own choices. But we’ve also appreciated the team taking the time to listen to us and learn what we value as a family and working to help our young adult make wise choices when he’s been introduced to negative influences. Most of all, because of his time at New Directions, we notice that our relationship with our son has improved. We are looking forward to him continuing in the program so that he can learn to better manage his condition and develop emotional resiliency. In time we hope that will allow him to obtain and maintain a paying job, perhaps take college classes, and continue to mature into a healthy young adult.
