In prior treatment to New Haven, I was treated only as someone with many symptoms and behaviors with no deeper insight into what was causing it. By the time I got to New Haven, I carried so much deep-rooted trauma and false beliefs that I was spreading negativity and pain to myself and all those around me. When I finally started digging deep and doing the work in therapy, it was like I was a new person. I slowly began to discover the core meaning—the absolute truths about myself that were always there all along. I discovered my inherent worth and I started to believe that I was truly deserving of love.

Your Community
When you come to New Haven, you will reside in one of our community houses and experience day-to-day activities with approximately fifteen other students. Bedrooms are shared with one to three roommates, and room assignments rotate often so you can get to know each of your housemates. Each community has its own team of clinicians, residential staff and a representative from school and nursing that make up your treatment team.
You also get to know other New Haven students through school, in groups and other activities on campus. Our two campuses are about 30 minutes apart. You may interact with students from the other campus when participating in sports or campus-wide activities.
Frequently Asked Questions
Students Answering Students
“I was worried I wouldn’t be able to do art or have my music. I was so happy when I found out I could bring my guitar and there was an art class. I worked on really cool art projects that I know will help me with my portfolio when I go to college. I love that I can play my guitar and draw in my spare time. I think it is really healing.” ~ Cassie, age 15
